Default Needed: CETA pic at certain angle..

I've finally gotten around to doing the CETA mod to my white WS6, but I need to know where to have them tape off the bumper. I can kind of tell from the pics I found by using the search function, but it's not totally clear to me. Does someone have (or could someone take) a picture of where the paint line is in that groove? TIA!

I taped it off to where the blue goes down to the flat part of the groove ,and followed the line all the way around. The groove is black and the rest of the panel is black.

I did it that way to, cut the line that you cant see unless your down under the car, that way you dont have to worry about small screw ups in the masking.

I've read his write up several times, but I managed to pass up that pic every damn time! That's a great shot of what I'm looking for.
