@Jonsey Here are pics from my install... The alignment of the templates were per TrackSpec Motorsports hood louvers installation instructions.

I feel they look much better installed per instructions as compared to installing them forward especially if the front angle of the louvers contradicts the front hood line.

I used this portable work stand to secure my hood while cutting it with a 4" die grinder.

I used #30 Clecos to hold the louvers in place while my friend and I bucked the rivets.

I countersunk the holes and bucked some polished aircraft rivets... pictured here are the bucked side of the rivets.

Pictured here are the tops of the countersunk rivet heads.
