Also, due to the thickness of the fastener, it sticks out a bit. Lastly, the Lexan ignites at 800 deg, so to bend it you need to get it really hot. I did heat the Lexan for something else and I ended up bubbling the plastic, bubbles inside the plastic that is. I am not saying it could not be bent probably could be carefully but I would have needed the exact curvature in order to bend it and I just do not have that. Heating it in an oven may have worked, I used a heat gun but and oven would have spread the heat evenly.

A wise investment, so I hear, not to mention the nice look.Can I ask you where you purchased them from? I have been thinking about getting some for a while and was too lazy to do the search myself.

lookin nice, dude. i thought about gettin yellow ones, but i just went for the clear protectors. they're great and why are there water spots on your vibe?? that's a crime around here, buddy. i'm gonna let you off with a warning because it's your first offense
