3ds max 2011 unwrap issue

[crdchris]

Hey everyone. I am currently having an issue unwrapping a certain section of my car model. I've tried pelt and planar, seams and no seams. All resulting in a bunch of mangled garbage. If anyone is able to help, it would be greatly appreciated


Overall thus far.


Problem area.


Right seam.


Left seam.


Pelt attempt.


Relax result. Face angles produces this, edge angles just dances and twirls.

try planar mapping and then use the relax tool
