That is cool! If I had one of those, everything would be louvered. I can see it now, my wife would come to me one day and ask " why did you louver the washer and dryer?" and I'd say "Because I can."....

The first thing my wife said when I brought home a test panel was "NOTHING I own gets louvered!" it's like she knows me. I tried to argue that the drier would work better with more air flow, but the washer might not be the best idea.

Cool, good job on the hood.
I wonder if you can put louvers in a motor cycle tank[S

I will try to get a pic. It won't be today. Storming like hell here. I will tell you to leave room above the punch so that you can punch a decklid that has a curve in it. Mine doesn't and it sux! I have to do a flat panel and then add it to the decklid.
The tank would be cool if you added a recess with a bead roller and then add the panel flush. you would have to be sure to rustproof the area under the louvered panel.

when you do a panel, it is upside down. lay your deck lid on its face, stand on the hinge edge and measure the height of the latch edge. add 4 or 6 inches to this dimension. now you can punch a curved deck lid.
