    It's not ready there, they seem to replace things by carbon* so maybe that also goes for the inner wheel arches . . . ? ?

    * I've updated the post with some vids below the pic.

    I've looked through the thread, you're right, there's a lot of transparent aluminum involved . . . :eek:

    For accident avoidance some have painted it . . . . (note the full transparent one pictured on the right, in front of that transparent background)

    I'm such a practical guy.

    I would just use translucent colored film and call it a day (red invisible line).

    I can draw six perpendicular lines, that's a cube, it's the 7th one I'd have issues with.

    I suppose I could overlay it over the other one.

    My lines could also be as wide as they are long.

    I don't think out of the box, I make the box!:D

    ...............the color blind comment, he almost had it.

    Great thinking. The seventh line should be at the center, across the faces perpendicular to the surface.

    It is the baloon kitten I cannot work out.

    Snow is completely gone here, all the rivers are ice free an flowing and most of the lake ice is melted thru. Trout season opened a few days ago. Temp has been between 45F and 60F over the past week. All the song birds are back and building nests and believe it or not the grass is turning green. Worked in my shop for a couple of days with no fire in the stove and both end doors open, what a pleasure. Finally, it's been a long hard winter.

    We've seen up into the 70's and a single 80's day last week. All of what you say has been true here too... until today :mad:

    80's thats a typical hot summer day here on the north east Atlantic coast. Maybe the powers that be observed it was heating up too fast in your area and had to cool it down and start over. :D
