Top Secret Skyline Hood?

Hi guys,
I bought a top secret skyline, I painted it gold and now it's time to do my first CF job. I already did the wing and the trunk using Freakay's tutorial, but for the hood, it's looks kind of hard. The hood is pretty complex and I am wondering how I should do it. Is it one big decal of CF, which I apply to a flat area, then try to put lots of microsol to put everything in place, or do it in multiple decals and try to fit them together?
Thanks!

I'd suggest laying little bits of c/f on the more intricate areas, and one large decal with cuts in it to accomodate all the little parts that the decal won't fit around.

I am probably confusing you, but I don't know any other way to say it.

The easiest way is going to be multiple pieces of CF. I started to do mine that way and stopped after the first 3 parts were on.
