From: "Huw Powell" <audi at humanspeakers.com>
> What would be *really* nice, and I realize I should have mentioned this
six months ago, is for them to have a horizontal "molding" line that matches
the transition line on the bumpers from paint color to black. Then it would
be easy to paint the top half and have them blend in.

Hmm... what's the general consensus on this interesting suggestion by Huw?

This actually crossed my mind at one point, but I was concerned about the
effect on those who ordered clear lenses.  It's not cost effective for me to
set up an extra set of molds just for the black "lenses", so both the clear
and the opaque would have this transition line on them if I add it to the
product.

I'm waiting on the RTV for the production molds, so there's a small window
of opportunity for me to change the masters if I do it right away.

What sayest thou (or is that "thous", or "thou's", or "thous's", or...)
