Oakley Hard Shell Cases

[MugenPWR]

ok, i realize this may be a dumb question, but i just recently picked up the graphite hard shell case. The felt liner inside is kind of rough to the touch, so i currently put my glasses in the microfiber pouch and then in the case. am i ridiculous for doing this, or is it ok for the shades to just sit inside the case? im super anal about stuff like this, and i feel silly, but let me know what you think!

I have the same case. I use it to store some of my super rare vintage stuff. I have never had an issue with just putting the glasses in there without using the microfiber bag...


Funny thing too..... your screen name use to be on my license plate for my show/drag car.....LOL

I have to take a pix and send it to you......

I always use the microfiber with any case but I'm super cautious.

I have the graphite, and headliner case, i just put my O's in there and roll up the microfiber and put that in with the frame, never noticed any scratches or anything, but i just use the hard case since I don't have a fancy Oakley case to put my glasses in, and to prevent dust buildup. I baby my O-matter's. I only notice hairline swirl makrs from wearing/ wiping down with the bag's.

I've been wanting to mention your name, mugen is awsum! have you seen the Spoon modded honda cr=z? they modified the suspension to a stiffer setting, improved the brakes, lowered the ride height, plus some other handling mod's that Spoon is always known for. I know they aren't so much into engine mod's as they are in handling performance. it's pretty sick looking.

I always liked the acura rs-x type s. Once in a while i'll see integra type-r's, some with the japanese front end conversion with the one piece headlights, in yellow or black. I know the older integra type r's came only in Championship white right? Honda has never been into selling their Civic Type-r's in america because of the ridiculous high price when people could spend that same mnoney on something more high performance.

Most recently, there's a guy in my town who drives what i believe to be a Nissan GT-R R35 Black edition, deep dark blue, black wheels, sick sick car.
I am in love with MKIV Supra's, twin turbo's capable of churning out 1,000HP easy.

wow, xmm a honda tuner geek! who knew! i'd love pic's.!
integra's are cool cars. I heard when you increase the HP to much on a honda, integra for example, that the wheels spin and hop to much because of the high HP and lack of grip/weight.

personally, if you want to obsess about the weight and getting it insanely light, rip out the stereo, a/c unit, sound proofing intereior, etc. you'll be surprised how heavy that stuff is. personally i'd leave the stereo out i hate listening to the radio and use my mp3 player. although, im not a big NOS fan. i like blown engines. what model racing hart wheels do u use? i like the c-5's. great great wheel company.
love those jdm one piece lights.

I alway's keep my glasses in the micro bag even when it hard cases. No harm in doing it.
