Short Description:
Long Description:
My Suzuki SX4 didn't get very warm inside during really cold winter days, so I made a panel to cover the air intake. The car's front always looked like a face to me, so it got a smirk out of the deal, too. I took a frontal picture of front of car, did a [[Shape Extraction]], and added a smirk that fit the face of the car. The shape was too large to [[Laser cut]], so I [[CNC Machined]] on the [[ShopBot]] out of a styrene sheet I had around, and added the smirk by [[Vinyl Cutting]] it and applying it to the sheet. It was attached with velcro to be able to remove it in the summer. The front lasted for several years; it eventually chipped a bit but was still installed when the car left.
