I have found a lady who does hood liner art for C5's and C6's. I talked to her about the C3's and she is very interested. She takes the mesh and fiberglasses over to create a painting surface. See her web site.
Please let me know if anyone is interested and I will try and see what we can do for price.

Todd can you find out more about her process? I am more interested in that. I would like to play around with my own airbrushes.
I think what you are saying is that she lays the glass mat over the OEM liner to make her template, finishes that, and then does the airbrush work.
I really want to keep the OEM board to keep the heat off of the hood. I am thinking that these can be painted with enamel 1st and then be airbrushed or freehanded. I did my C5 last winter and it turned out good. It wasn' elaborate but I didn't want to put alot of time into the 1st round if it might fail.
If you don't mind find out what you can from her and let us know..... THANKS!
