replacing pop out glass

Post Wed Jan 23, 2013 5:39 pm

The glass on my pop outs is savagely grinder splattered and scratched. Could I buy standard e30 rear windows and put the glass onto my shadowline pop out frames. Sitting here looking at it now and it seems easy enough to do[/img]

top tip, be careful where the grinder spray goes, it can be costly.

It wasnt me. Was like that when I bought it. As a last ditch attempt im using fairy liquid and 1000 grit and its working....theres bits still embedded but its smooth again. I just need the window smooth so it will tint properly. Im very pleased its improving it.

it will need to be perfect if the marks are on the insides and you tinting them .

one pube or a short dog hair shows up badly that's before we talk about air bubbles .

First time I tried tinting I got a beard hair stuck in it. Smiled, stood back and there it was...staring right back at me the cunt. A 2cm long part of my face in the centre of my glass looking like the grand canyon.

This sanding paper is working very well. Im going to sand it. Then buy polish to remove the scratches
