skipped a lot of steps, didn't you? lol

Vacek · 05-19-2009, 11:41 AM

Um, this is like showing 50 million car parts on the ground in a picture, and a picture of a finished car next ... with no steps in between.

DIY - Fail

kingka · 05-19-2009, 06:59 PM

Bimmer335i07 · 05-19-2009, 07:13 PM

a 4 step DIY from a noob

Prodipper · 05-19-2009, 10:10 PM

Nice write up! LOL

khaye1 · 05-19-2009, 11:19 PM

wow!!!

LiKWiD335xi · 05-20-2009, 07:27 PM

I went out and bought a heat gun, a screw, and some silicone. I waited 3 hours and checked my computer desk, my amber inserts and my silicone were there waiting for me as pictured above. After another 4 hours of waiting, everything disappeared and my headlight corners were clear.

Easiest DIY ever, I suggest it to everyone!

I almost forgot one step. The magic that makes this DIY work is dropping some acid prior to going out and venturing into Home Depot for supplies. Turns out I also bought 2 grand worth of lumber and 6 hours later I had a new deck and a new shed in my backyard.

PaulBailey@ltbmw · 05-20-2009, 07:32 PM

Worst DIY yet

jhv · 05-20-2009, 07:35 PM

Geesh, Cant you read?

You screw the Heatgun, then silicone some negative to said Heatgun. Then and only then, do your headlights become clear and aim around corners.

txusa03 · 05-22-2009, 07:11 AM
