Well, today i did a test fit for turns.... And it seems like i will have to start all over again with the turns.... cuz i made few mistakes when made the mold, and now turns do not fit as flush as i wanted .... Im kinda sad, cuz it took me soo long to make these, and too so much work and now everything is gone.....
well.... In the pics you wount see any inperfections, cuz they are small kinda, but i want to make this perfect as OEM. so.... everything will move on again, i will try to update the progress and this time make it right as it should be... here are few pics:

I do.
You cant see the whole fitting situation in pics... Turns sit way to deep, and the part what screws to the pumre aint flush at all and there is a gap between bumper and turn.... well, after weekend im gonna know how much time will take to make another mold and strat all over again, cuz now im might order compleat new mold from company who produces lots of plastic things..... this will depent how much money they will want for the mold and etc... gonna se how it goes..

Jay, sorry for not responding, but this week for me was horible, cuz my GF granfather died so i had to be with her.....
About the new mold, we figured out how to take mold straight from the stock turns, now the only thing whats stops me from finishing the mold is the inside of the turns, need to find how to make the glass holding place perfectly and another few things... Might be the next week i will have another pair of new turn for test fitting.. QUOTE(jgreening @ Aug 13, 2005 - 12:01 PM) Romas, can we have an update on the new mold please? Thanks.

        This time they fitted. And fitted really good. Still need to adjust few things on the driver side turn (it sits not in the center, droped down a bit, cuz of the screw hole). But everything else is ok This means - mass production will soon begin  Jay, your turs are on your way, just PM me your address -------------------- Ex celica owner - just a guy from other side of the pond...
