Had a spair hour today so set to with the B & C piller black outs.
Made a template from grease proof paper....

Did this by holding in place with tape then in pencil marked out the windows and opening, also the hight was marked out with a lenght of tape top & bottom.
Next up i placed the fablon under the pattern and drew over the pencil line to transfer it onto the backing paper.

Then cut out the pattern but enlarged each peice by about 20mm to allow for the wrap round of corners and under the seals.
All finished....


I like the look, used a hot gun to shape the door tops and just made them stick abit better.
