First Attempt at Modding Crown Guards

Recommended Posts

J.Eric

Hi Guys!

I recently pick up a slightly modded 1680 from another member

on the forum. So i thought i would try my hand at re-shaping

the crown guards. I have already changed the bezel insert.

Here are a few pics. Be gentle, first time trying

this.....

 

Here are the before shots... I think they sorta look like sagging tits lol.

And these are the after. A little more pointed...

So what does every one think? Did i get it close? Did i screw it up??

Hopefully they will look better after polishing. Will keep everyone updated

as to how it turns out.

 

Thanks for looking!!

Probably about the 3rd or 4th best type of whoring you can do :thumbsup:

 

Thread crap much? :facepalm:

 

Back to OP, looks like a might fine job. 100x better then anything i'd manage.
