83. Clear blinker lens again

HONDA CITY CABRIOLET TURBO2 : Molded and replaced the clear blinker lens again 09

The rear blinker lens has turned yellow, so I molded it again, and this time, I applied a UV cut spray and replaced it. At the same time, the front combination lamp lens was also molded and changed to an all clear type.

The front combination lamp is all orange in the Japanese specification, and in the European specification (JAZZ), the blinker side is orange and the position side is clear, and not only the lens but also the back unit has a slightly different shape.

Continuation...

I think the orange accent color of this European lens looks good with full bra specifications, but I think it's better to use all clear when you're not wearing it.

Heat it with a heat gun to soften the sealant, then remove the lens and replace it.

The polyester resin used last time had an unstable curing state, a sticky surface that was difficult to handle, and a large shrinkage rate. The epoxy resin used this time hardens and is easy to handle, and the shrinkage seems to be slight.
