New Hood Insert Design

[tom4bren]

Its hard to do a cut out like that with LED lights under it with my machine. I have always liked that logo. Could do something similar but not complete so it may not look right.
the guy who had this before me messed up the insert so bad I can not reuse it so I have to make another one. The problem is no one is making them so I thought I would make my own. The studs are not the issue. I can bond studs back on the insert with no problems.
I would love an original one but I am okay making my own. Puts some LED lights under it and it will look good.

Bill,

Those 'dots' on mine aren't LEDs. I just removed all of the studs & went bolt through for attaching it (some nice SS flat head screws I had on hand - they're painted black now so not really noticable).

If you're interested in my spare, I'll try to snap some pix of it this weekend.

I didn't mean to poo-poo your idea of making one. It'd prolly be a cool project to work on.

Sorry,
I meant that I plan on running LED lights under the hood with the VX on it. I would be interested in the spare as I am not sure how the one I plan on making will turn out. At one time I would have been able to make it out of Carbon Fiber but I do not have the shop or tools to make the mold. I ran a shop that did that sort of thing a few years ago.
Still plan on making one just to see how it turns out.
