Anyone with a SC have the template for cutting the engine cover?

My SC didn't come with one and I prefer the look of the template-cut cover rather than the straight across cut cover. If you know where I might find one that would be just as helpful. Thanks!

Thanks, Faultline. Hopefully I can find someone who still has theirs, like maybe SoCalVibe, or SCVibe, or maybe even Lancer or Bluecrush. Didn't Sunny get one as well?

I have a template for the engine cover that I haven't used yet. If you can't find anyone locally I can mail it to you so you can use it to trace. I will need it back though.

Really appreciate it!

Mine's a little chewed up from the tape I used. Turned out ok but needs some work and a repaint and decaled. A little advice, Unless you have used a dremmel a lot, don't use one now for your first time. I used my Bro'-in-law's and he said to use the bit cutter thingy. That just chewed the plastic up. I ended up using the cutting wheel and a jig saw blade then smoothed things out with the sanding wheel on the dremel tool and finally some sandpaper. I still have a weekend of work to do on it.

I made a copy of my S/C template and sent it to him this morning along with a couple things he bought from me. Good tips on how to go about cutting in though. It may come in handy. Thanks.

Thanks Lancer and Brain! I thought about the dremmel thing, but like you said, I've never used one before so maybe I better look into other options! Thanks for the tips and sale!
