The CNC machine provided didn't have the correct offset for our cars, Therefore some tweaking was needed to  achieve the most accurate offset for the machine.

Trial and error seems like the only option, after some disappointing moments one after another, we still don't have an accurate finish for our product.

Despite that, we're still making progress and hopefully have it done ASAP.
