Smoked lens look alittle pink to me -thats way Ive decided to change from smoked to clear. Also, my housings are carbon fiber and the clear lens makes that easy to see.

I really appreciate JT-imports for helping us out with this group buy, Ive been looking for replacement lens for quite along time.

mike

petecowie 02-05-2004 05:04 AM

thought I would post to say somebody may of received a set of smoked in error, I ordered the smoked lenses and received clear, trouble is UK is a bit far to be sending things back. Great service and fast delivery tho'

petecowie 02-05-2004 07:41 AM

what can I say, damn that tint is light! on closer inspection I have in fact got a set of tinted lenses. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...1047683664.gif

JT-Imports 02-05-2004 09:34 AM

Yeah its pretty close.......



I wouldnt say it looks pink, just the pics....

JaySpec7 02-05-2004 05:45 PM

WOW.. fast shipment... https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/bigok.gif



only problem is... it's CLEAR!! https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/blush.png

JT-Imports 02-05-2004 06:04 PM

Are you sure Jay? I double checked it twice.

JaySpec7 02-05-2004 06:35 PM

ok... i just peeled the film a little more and put it against a white piece of paper...



https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...>/rolleyes.gif my fault.. it is SMOKED... i just didn't peel enough of the protective film...



sorry for the confusion.. and thanks again Jason for the fast shipment and offering us the covers which I also have been wanting for awhile... https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/bigok.gif

JT-Imports 02-05-2004 06:38 PM

haha yeah no problem. When you see them side by side it really makes a diff, but alone it looks clear. I noticed when you put them up agaist something black you almost dont see threw them(which I like on sleek lights) but the clear on something black you can see it just the same.



Either way Im glad they made it by friday, hopefully everyone will get them then, I was trying to get them out early in the week so it would work out.

FikseRxSeven 02-06-2004 07:15 AM

jay let me know when you install yours....... i might have to be present for that so i do the job right myself

Rx7aholic 02-06-2004 09:00 PM

Also jay r u still thinking of selling your car? I am in the boat as u dude, I sacrafic driving old beat up 4 door family cars so I can hold on my Rx7 but it does get's annoying sometims when u can't use the Rx7 when taking a family trip. khris

JT-Imports 02-06-2004 09:22 PM

LDawg 02-06-2004 09:32 PM

mike

JT-Imports 02-12-2004 05:10 PM

good to hear it

FikseRxSeven 02-12-2004 08:58 PM

what kind of service is this!!! i dont have it yet!!!



j/k.... you're the man jt

JT-Imports 02-13-2004 03:36 AM

Really??? Thats weird.... Let me track it and see whats up.

Rx7aholic 02-15-2004 12:46 PM

Hey has any one installed they light covers? What is the right way to installed them? Do u apply double masking tape on the housing and on the Sleek light covers? Or only side plus sillicone sealeant? Khris

Rx7aholic 02-16-2004 08:53 PM

anyone?

JT-Imports 02-16-2004 10:13 PM

As far as I heard before, they were doing its both ways just depends. If the fit was 100% i would just use the really thin double sticky tape, but even if its a little off I would use silicone or something like it.

Rx7aholic 02-17-2004 07:28 PM

Ok thanks Jason, I did not want to screw up this set, also thanks alot for making this deal come true. Khris

JaySpec7 02-17-2004 07:47 PM

I used black silicone on the covers I got from Rotary Extreme and they held better than the double sided sticky tape... I'm going to use it again on the RE covers.. they look cleaner after the messy install... I don't want these things to fly off, I heard the sticky tape gets a little loose when it's really hot out or under the sun...

Rx7aholic 02-18-2004 10:24 AM

Hey Jay what is the name of the sillicone? Is it possible to get it from pepboys? Khris

JaySpec7 02-18-2004 10:30 AM

I don't remember the name, it's just black silicone sealant...



I just applied it, squished the lense cover on.. and ran my finger around the edges to get a nice a smooth joint...



good luck..
