Begin rant:
To begin, I want my wing tip lenses to look like they're molded into the tips. One screw on each side holding them in, seamless transition.
My first set of wing tip lenses turned out horrible, I over trimmed them, they were crooked... just garbage. Ordered a new lens from Vans to start over. Second set came out much better. Taped them off completely, used Superfil to smooth out the transitions, sanded them down, popped them out... look great, although not perfect. While pulling one screw out, something grabbed and cracked the hole on one lense. %$!@#$!@#$^
On to round three. Trimmed it down, installed, another round of Superfil, sanded down, looking really good. Went to pop it out (just like the last time) and it cracked getting it out. #!%!@#$^@$%&%!@#$!~@#$%@#$^
I found an extra entire lens kit I didn't know I had.... so I'm going for round four. One of these days. When working on it doesn't just irritate me beyond the point of complete anger.![Mad :mad: :mad:](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
The only upside is one of them is really nice. I like it. The other is becoming a serious test of my patience.
End rant.
