No stencil either, everything is done free hand. I use the same tool as what I cut the hood with, an air saw. You have to sand the cut afterwards to make it smooth and straight. It takes time so be patient.

^ That's a bit too big IMO. I know its hard to work around the tow hook cover. Its either you cut just below it or around it to retain the tow... or if you don't care about it, cut right through it so its not too big.
Paint chipping is not an issue as long as you take your time and you still have the original paint. If you have a respray, it all depends on the quality of the paint and how the bumper was prepped before the spray. This goes the same with the hood.

Everyone one here should know that Ray is a professional. 
He has cut literally a hundred hoods and bumpers of members cars. In Metro he is known as "The Surgeon". If you want these results you should pm Ray for an appointment.
DONT TRY THIS AT HOME!
