well I officially f**ked up my Lens on my light

cliffordwoeller · 06-09-2008, 02:11 PM

well i tried the oven method you all told me about and yea my lens is messed up and you know its just like me and my work i cant do anything with out effing it up. and so of course naturally i was pissed so i broke the damn thing on purpose cause it pisses me off so bad that i cant do this damn shit... so i guess its going to be a lil bit before i clear my corners if i clear my corners at all because its such a freaking pain in the ass

lol i used a hair dryer, actually you don't even need to use anything, just have to break the clips and it all comes right out

A pain in the ass? do you have trouble screwing in a light bulb because its that simple.

I did mine about this time of the year before. Its so hot outside I just parked in the sun for about an hour and was able to just pry them apart without further heating.

lmao, what did you guys do wrong though?

[ion] C2 · 06-09-2008, 03:51 PM

i just bought mine from comanche, crystal clear lens on both for $33 each but i doubt you'll find a deal like that anywhere, you can get headlights on eBay for about $50 shipped non-cleared

cliffordwoeller · 06-09-2008, 04:10 PM

i have no idea what i did wrong but when it comes to that if its not mechanical work i suck at it and comes out looking all crappy thats why i hate customizing my own car and most times pay someone to do it thats why my body kit is just sitting in the garage right now and will for prob quite a few more months

meadus101 · 06-09-2008, 04:27 PM

Yea, I'd be worried about the oven method. Hair dryer all the way.

Silentalero · 06-09-2008, 04:38 PM

Ok in all seriousness. #1 punctuation

but with the headlight, just get a hair dryer and be PATIENT! if you force the smaller side out itll snap. You are not stronger than the liquid cement GM uses on them so dont try to tear it apart either. Check the how to and follow exactly, its not hard ot do. Worse case scenario i think richie lives near you.
