well,... we had a bit of a mishap  ,...when they've been left in the garage to cure there must have been alot of moisture there so come this morning they looked all milky and cloudy,.. i did my best to sand the s**t out of them and make them passable but there's too much i'm just not happy with and been the perfectionist I am this mask will brobably never be used,.. but I am going to try again,. not a bad 1st attempt though! i've made them look passable to give you an idea how they'll look!     ________________________________________ Proud Member of the ASTOR Owners Club |

They don't look too bad it's only because I'm screwtinizing them they'd pass with a bit more tidyingI accidentally went through some of the weave in bits and there's a little bulge on the inside of the lense I'm not happy with but here it is in the sun shine   ________________________________________ Proud Member of the ASTOR Owners Club |

I can do you a spray tan if you want? Might not be the best but al give it a shot. By the looks of the amount of you have to put in i would say £115 is a fair proce buy then again only you know how much the products needed to make these are and for the effort going in to them i would want to make abit extra cash in on top if it was me ________________________________________ Clicky: [url =http://www.306gti6.com]click here[/url] remove the space between [url & = |
