Thank you all.. I kind of didn't care for the side pieces either even while we were molding it but I just wanted something different something that I made not some guy in Japan also why I left the molded side and didn't shave down.. kinda like it it grew on me after it was ICEd..

Huge improvement over the original piece. Like someone else mentioned, if you could blend the sides just a little. However, great custom work and looks sweet.

I was considering this lip.. Looks alot better then before molding it in. Now, I know why there is no other way too go but a TTE Lip! There's no seam issues. It's going too be a longggggggg wait to get TTE.
