items are being scanned w/ a NextEngine scanner, and printed on a Dimension printer.
There are some companies out there that use a SLA resin that can be finished to be clear, but it seems like too much work and probably wouldn't be too cost effective. So going to go the GP route, and then mold it and cast them.

Printing itself would be a day. Then about 2 for molding. So to be generous, let's shoot for next Friday.
Also does anyone know of anyone that has 08+ lenses? I've found one individual here, but haven't received a reply.

I'm going to try and keep them in the $25-30 range. It really depends on what route I go w/ making them. I'd love to have them printed in bulk , but that'd cost much more than if I were to print a master set and then cast them.
I'll know more later tomorrow once I get word when they take a look at the file.

Lol my bad I don't have your number or else I would have. Even though it was raining dude there was a good 50+ cars there. Me and my neighbor were working on his GTI and after we got done he wanted to show off his new Twintake induction System from Forge Motorsport. So we headed up there and it was a good night except I got there and I was wearing my uniform/a hoodie on top cause I had to go on watch at midnight and we went there at like 10pm lol. So I just drove around the lot then sat in my car hating life cause I couldn't stay lol.
