clear lexan doesn't yellow. I know the white stuffs does.

As for scratching....apparently mr10 is abrasion resistent.

why?..... insanely stronger compared to acrylic and cracking could be an issue with all the vibration.

Cheaper?...hell no.

I'm hoping the vinyl will be ok for a while since the mr10 doesn't seem to like adhesives/paint.....might get a little bubbling...


It's nice to see someone putting a little more into there projects, especially when he could of used a much cheaper acrylic and nobody would of known the diffrence.

oh, the box looks frackin slick....nice job man.
