if ANYONE needs a heat gun in the future, go to ACE, buy theirs, unpack and use it carefully, pack it back and return.
I've done this the 2-3 times I've needed a heat gun (still can't justify buying one) |

Post up pics to show off your work OP, it's cold as hell out now, I haven't left the house today.
![]() Pepboys has one for $15. You've spent more $$ on gas driving there and back returning it.

Yes my car is dirty, Yes i know in the instructions it says to install them at 50F or warmer... I just couldn't deal with the amber... i've always done the amber delete on all my prev cars. Last car i did clears, went to smoke than painted. LOL I wanted to wait till i got the window trim painted but i just couldn't deal with the amber anymore. The amber reflectors imo are lame.. no bulb inside had to get rid of them pronto. Yes the wheels are filthy i know sorry, they are 17 SE with Blizzaks (oem caps)... i didn't wanna post pics i feel a little embarrassed but its too cold to wash right now, i try to stay away from hand wash altho i will go soon, the car is covered in salt... ughh
Funny thing is that i'm bringing my car in for service tomorrow at Hassel. The ride is pretty much stock so far... just matte grill, jlevi BSM reflectors, and plasti dip emblem matte black... Comments? Suggestions? Let a brotha knowww, i'm going with a much diff look this time than my ex W203. ![]() Last edited by madeinhongkong; 12-17-2010 at 11:40 PM.. |
