...This is one of those projects that completely flames my ass. This is the first day of my vacation, and this is the first project, also the one I was most looking forward to working on, and it completely SUCKS. I spent the better part of 3 hours removing the headlights, heating and removing the lens covers, prepping and bonding the chrome film with the bonding iron... all for what!? I thought this was going to be a real eye catcher! What an anti-climax!! The difference is not even noticeable!! Don't try this at home kids because it's a complete waste of time. Sorry for putting you guys through all this, but I felt the overwhelming need to vent. This is another project failure:^(
