1993 SLE made his himself... so he did many reiterations and changed things based on feedback like he gave you.

It'* possible that painting or coating the backside may give the desired effect you are looking for.

Yeah when the glare is reduced that'd look absolutely killer!!!!

I like the colors, but it'd be great to see the actual halo in there!

Awesome!
