I will say this it is some work involved with this mod grind sand grind some more sand some more. I am using my drill and a adapter to get the orange out. I was about to give up until I finally started see the clear coming through words can't descibe the feeling. I will continue to work on this one once I'm done I will go to the yard and get two corners and work on them to put on the tour. This is a time consuming procedure there is no short cuts so if you need your car do not pull your corners off and think you'll get this done in a weekend. Keep yours on your car and buy another pair to work on. I did a search on clear corners and I read about that secret reflective material that one of the guy's put in there corner does anyone know what that material is yet? 2006 Mustang GT 2004 Mustang GT (Gone) 2004 Yamaha FZ1 1995 Contour GL 1982 Cutlass 2 door

Most people don't that's why I recommended that if you want to do this mod don't pull out the corners your using get another set and work on them alittle at a time. So you did 7 hours worth of work and when it was all said and done it wasn't worth it? Maybe I'll stop now. 2006 Mustang GT 2004 Mustang GT (Gone) 2004 Yamaha FZ1 1995 Contour GL 1982 Cutlass 2 door
