Every time I do something new I notice all the imperfections – then I get used to it or ignore and don’t notice anymore… like most of us I see things on my car that most people never notice.

take 2 pieces of colored yarn or string....run one diagonal from top left to bottom right, then run another from top right to bottom left. Once the 2 strings make an "X", where they cross will be the dead center on the trunk...then place the mt fuji there
When I was doing the "shark fin" mod for my friend's bimmer, we ran a string from the front emblem to the rear emblem to get an idea where the center spot on the roof was, perfect measurements IMO.

Too far right, left, up or down and the top of emblem wont completely cover holes…
Right to left I think its pretty close… Like Papa said, no one else will probably notice the mm or 2 that it might be off…
