hah ha what ive told you is all i know :D sorry champ.

im tipping you'll be there for a while with an orbital sander though.

i think the diamond blade wet saw would be your best bet.

or a combination of drilling, sawing and sanding :(

have you tried being happy with the orange lenses? :P

I've decided i'm going to drill a couple of holes close together and then try and fit a diamond blade tile cutting jigsaw piece into it and try and cut it.

I've been a bit busy lately to get back onto this project but as soon as I have some more time i'll start on it.

Im going to have a go at this too as soon as I get another set of lenses.

If I have any luck I will let you know...

I think it will just be about finding the right man for the job of cutting/shaping/manipulating that damn lense.

Cool, let me know how you go with yours if you get it done before me. I really want to have them ready by the time PSI parts have those carbon surrounds ready so I can install both at the same time.

    • Wife wanted basket things in the wardrobe in our temporary house. Thought about ripping our the wardrobe and fitting the entire IKEA set, but it's a temporary house and we want to move in a few years. So IKEA advertises this as a 50cm unit, however the actually basket and rails measure 46cm wide. Only issue was depth, IKEA stuff is quite deep, where as the builder special junk is super shallow at less than 40cm. Send it, chopped the rails, then offset the mounting holes, job done, happy wife, less shit scattered all over the bedroom. Did the same to the other side too. Also drove the Skyline shit box today, dropped off oil at Supercheap Auto. I didn't realise they only now take max 2x bottles per visit. I visited 2x Supercheap Autos.  
    • I've seen similar actually in my situation. You never know what tables are attempted to be used when the car thinks it's -99C or +200C. The fail state is not usually that extreme but you know what I mean - it was in my case though! This is where being able to read all the sensors is useful cause you see this stuff really quickly.
    • The above is very important. However as long as you keep timing relatively low, it's plausible to make your own knock ears and plausible to learn to tune with a modern ECU that can do wideband O2 correction like a boost controller. I mean if you only have one viable road to even drive the car on, learning to tinker to this level may be worth doing given you can't do much else with the car...?
    • I find the fact that the rear plate has to be bent inwards at the rear not so bad: but the front is just awful: It's like come on. (these are my very old, now retired/turned in plates) TBH it is a lot of money to fix a minor issue, the fact I said "I'll never really spend the money on doing this" is why people ended up buying them as a gift for a 'car guy' who can be hard to shop for.. for car guy things.
    • I just bent the ends of my premo plates. It even went through Regency like that after the engine conversion and the inspector (a great bloke!) just squinted his eyes and said "I didn't see that". Plates, and how they look, are just something that have zero importance to me.
