Apex 693 Report post Posted April 21, 2009 Looking good, the lip needed to be there!! I would say no to eyelids and yes to clear lights… Although orange indicators are FTW. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

bravo 35 Report post Posted April 22, 2009 Recommend the light sand with fine wet and dry first. I removed the chrome from the black plastic for a better result but you can easily wreck it doing this unless you are very carefull - just mask it? Also use satin black, not gloss.
