I'm already losing the bet.

Either way, good job!

I'm getting mine done with TSX and minigun shrouds soon.

What sealant did you use? When I did my retrofit on my previous car, I used the Nissan headlight sealant (B6553-89915) to replace the sealant goop I destroyed. hehe

Thanks. I hope so too. I alternated the clamps around a few times to make sure every area got a bit of clampage.

Thanks, haha. xD I didn't use any sealant. I just regooped all the glue in place and reheated it. I'm hoping it'll hold up fine, that stuff is really sticky.
