York, PA Meets-last Saturday of every month
love the headlights!
My xb already rattles so I assume any fiddling would make it worse. I have no real logic. As an industial designer with a father that's a mechanical engineer, I just have a hard time trusting adhesives! I assume that over a few years in a hot closed up car with seasonal temperature fluxes, the glue will give and it will start to separate. but that's what staples are for, right? lol Seriously, you obviously know what you're doing!
your work looks fantastic so I know you didn't cut any corners. It's just that my training is hard to fight! Plus, apparently it's hard for me to find time to stop by to look at it and take it off your hands.
you probably don't even have it anymore! The last few weeks have not been fun for me.
BTW, i do think the flames look great! flames are a bit of a sticky issue with me. you have to know what you're doing. I learned to draw them decently for a few toys I designed. I have a pair of chuck taylor's that have flames on them and they are the worst flames I have ever seen. I can't believe there isn't one designer at Converse that knows what they're doing! lol

Hey Jim, long time!
We had a good setup there, a local chat thread and a state BS thread, we all posted on both... Cliques my ___... Sorry, but when I get ____ed at something, I usually just drop it stone cold, that's the way I am. like a switch. May as well remove me from the roster over there, doubt I'll be posting much there anymore... Don't care for the 'tude about it on there anyway...
Haha, see? Don't ____ me off...

I guess they're not old enough yet to care or appreciate the way-cool car daddy has, lol!
