CRSX Lexan fog for sale idea
Hey guys i talked to imistken on c rsx, and asked him for the supplies for lexan for, since he offered me to help him host on here and the other site, would you guys be interested in his lexan fogs.
I so far ran them and had no problems also heard hes a bit slow when making them but never has failed in deleiverly really.
Personally i'd do it myself but if he is offering might as well let him
I set up a poll which is better and more trusting.
I need one the mods let me know where i should set this up in the forsale forum or in lighting.

Ok guys, everyone has broken their foglight lense. I did my reseach on clubrsx and used Lexan LX10 plastic sheet to replace the lense. Here is my instructions with pictures.
1) Take off the housing. Buy Lexan LX10 .093 thick from Home Depots ($5). Make sure you buy a BIG piece because you WILL need to make a few before cutting the perfect shape.
2) Break the OEM glass off. Dig out all the OEM sealant.
3) Trace out shape onto the plastic sheet. It won't be perfect....so test around.
4) Using an electric saw and and electric sander, cut out the pieces and perfect it's shape.
5) Fit it onto the foglights until you make one that is as fit as possible.

1) BB Gun and cheap Japanese Sword test.
2) This high power BB gun can shoot through glass bottles and unopened soda cans. I've destroyed a lot of things with this BB gun, its pretty powerful.
3) Result?? Just a few dents. Not going to brake it.
4) Lets chop it with the sword.
5) A few scratches. Not going to break it.
6) Try bending this shit?
I don't think the rocks on the road can break this too easily. I'll see if this will last me 10,000 miles. At least it's stronger than the OEM glass.
Total cost: $10.
Total time: About 4 hours.

Mine cracked, but the lamin-x is kind of keeping them together. I'm really pissed with the PW:JDM quality, second dam time they broke

So, how would this work? You'd make em and we pay for em or we help u pay for the tool and we get em? I'm down for it, so long as the price is right.
