Half X Project

[Zax]

Decided to keep the Half X I had and go through with the customization. Pretty excited, and thought I'd share since it's definitely interesting (at least to me).

First got them as a complete package:

Lenses were beat, the frame was scuffed, but springs were in tact and rubbers were good.

Got new lenses from @zwc0442 , and sent them off to @Chris A Hardaway for a custom "trimming". He took them down by 4mm, which should make them look a little less ridiculous on my face.

Now they're on the way to Zach for a cerakote finish, to give it a more "matte black" look. Excited to see how these look.

I know it's not the most exciting thing, but I'm pumped!

Want to thank everyone who has provided feedback and suggestions, and I greatly appreciate all of the talent as well!

Very cool. I'd love to see before / after pics while wearing them to see difference in lens size. My wife loves the half x but the lenses touched her cheeks.

These are gonna look great, I would have taken a photo on me, but they were already too small lol. Now they are way too small on me! Didn't want to damage the spring hinges.

Can't wait to see after photos in a few weeks.
