it looks really good to flush mount, but as a glass guy, do you add the channel/metal towards the edge of the glass or do you add the channel under the glass ? in other words, do you raise it to be flush? if you did i would thind the gap would be too much, so you add the metal to make the opening smaller?

yes, just move the channel closer. Then you add metal raise the base. We shoot for 1/4" edge gap and 3/8"base gap for the urethane.


or build up with urethane and run a rubber trim. Which would be totally reversable.

You guys gotta have some faith!

Powertrain comes when you can fully afford it. Do all of the close to free stuff you can do and still keep it running.

I am certain he will let you use it. However I think his car will be back from BBT soon and I think his car will be going on it.
