Mine had the outline already on the liner so I used water based paint and put 3 coats on the C5 logo. Heat has not hurt it. Take the liner off and lay it flat to paint. Might want to degrease and paint the liner flat black as a good base first.

I love mine. Sure makes a difference in the underhood look.

Very cool mod to have... All of them are Very impressive especially VJs! I also like the Jake Memo, it's cool! Babes awesome too.
At a Gnote, time n effort involved, I was on the fence with my click and off that quickly Lol.
To bad you can't just buy liners made to just replace for a couple hondos. That would be certainly be doable.
Enjoy your weekend

Definitely HOT!
Its fun to watch as soon as you pop the hood the cell phones start appearing taking pics....
You can get it done a lot cheaper. I purchased a new hood pad @ approx. $120 then got in contact with a local kid taking an art class. This was his first project of this type but he had a great air brush portfolio, like I said, he was taking an art class and he actually used my hood pad as his final grade assignment. So, I'd suggest contacting the local community college and talking with the art department.
Good Luck
