1:what do i use for masking ? willmasking tape work fine ?
masking tape will work fine, i prefer using liquid mask, but have done a few lids with nothing but tape...

2: is there templates for the windows ?
from my experience the window templates come with the body... depending on the brand you might have not recieved any...

for #3, well i normaly draw my own in paintshop so i really can't help you there

heres a question from me... what are good substitutes for liquid mask? if i use some low tac masking tape, will it work better if i e.g. blow a hairdryer on it to warm it up?
