Default Door handles and cooling plate - I was bored

Well I decided since I had some extra 3M Di-noc laying around to add some subtle touches, door handles and the cooling plate. I made the cooling plate out of some thin aluminum flashing and used 3M tape to attach. Its not the most rigid, but for its purpose I think it works well. Its more of a looks thing to cover up the huge hood latch hole. Oh well, flame away or maybe try it, either way to me it looks better than the hole and scratches or bland paint.

Thanks, it was just some scraps I had so I put it to some use, again its more of a visual, and if I decide I don't like it later, then its undo-able.

Thanks again, I'm not much on huge mods, just tasteful, subtle improvements, but I would HIGHLY recommend the 3M stuff. The thickness of the real carbon overlays just turns me off to it. It does look good, but definitely doesn't look Factory installed. The 3M is thin and looks like the piece is actually made from it.

Its cheap enough that if you don't like it, then you don't feel sick for wasting money and its reversible with minimal effort.

Again, Thanks for the feedback!!
