Audi TT The Audi TT line, in both the coupe and roadster combines Audi's All Wheel Drive performance with the feel of a European sports car.

So I'm making my own clear corners.

you heat gun guys dont know what youre talking about. 350 in the oven for 11 mins and you can peel the healight aparts like a fortune cookie. best part is that for the 11mins you can have 2 or 3 beers.

if you had a heat gun youd be working the entire time to come to the same result.

heat guns are ghey. [:'(]

lol, heat gun takes like 2-3 min, and therefore saves more time for drinking beer later!

I'm not so happy with my work done though.. after a few hours.

I thought I was being smart and putting a dab of superglueon the edge of the clear corners to hold them in place better. Turns out though that the fumes from the superglue are showing any and every finger print in the housing. It looks like a bunch of white fingerprints around the clear corners.

Oh well... I wanted to put in a new grill while I had the bumper off but it didn't get here in time. I'll have to pull the bumper again next weekend and I'll just fix the headlights then as well.

I guess you have to learn from your mistakes.
