Hey randy,
I used a dremmel with cutoff wheel to cut out the portion and then used a sander to smooth off the edges..
I was thinking about it but wanted to Spray the STi logo white. Ill photoshop it and see how it looks like then proceed from there. Thanks Norris and Randy for the comments.

Hey Ryan,
Yeah, I noticed the crooked lines and thought i cut crooked but it was just the pre-cut lines made with a Permanent marker. But definetly will touch up on the rest and find a lay over border to cover the outline portion to make it look like a professional made this..
thanks guys,
walter

as specified in the other thread, I would have used a tighter mesh and redo the curved area. Looks good!
How are you securing the mesh to the cover?
