I'll open the rest up when I get new razorblades, the one I did nearly destroyed the whole thing over a slightly used one. It tears and rips very easly if not sharp and new.

I wish I had ran across the GT3 vinyl earlier, because that would have been a better chioce in daylight, becasue the pj dominates the room and I want it to look nice. I also regretted not buying the thin metal stripes one needs to cut two layers of vinyl, they didn't sell them online either. But I think I'll order some off Ebay for the rest, it will become handy around the holes and many other places like sharp corners where one needs to nip and tuck a little.

I would have bought a set of minty LUGs from you, if I had plenty more of $.. but I already have a new green and red LCP, and a decent blue, but maybe next year. I hope they wont be thrown away, in case you wont go for all the tubes you can get, that would have been a terrible shame.

No, I'm not going to be tossing away any tube that is in good enough shape to bring any decent amount of money. Even if it's only 50 dollars, 50 dollars is 50 dollars and that's a tank and a half of gas.

in fact I expect to acquire more tubes before too long. As long as they check out as being in minty shape, I'm willing to stock 'em deep.

I'm glad you talked some sense into me, with having the air outlet sliced, because now blue started to sing. I can now also change the individual wrappings and remove the uneven once without having to redo half of it.

But it's really annoying that I can't capture the blue shade that I have, and exactly the same as the car in the video from certain angles, I see it now but I can't show it. Doesn't matter, you know the shade of the car and that's how it looks. Sometimes.

I would have bought a set of LUGs, but I had time spending my money until you said you had them.

Yellow? That was a color I was not expecting, blue and yellow.. If you would have said black and yellow yes, but blue, that's unheard of. But I will for sure look into this as the black metal grid is just 4 screws away. Smile
