Splicing the Iridium

So the past two months I've been downsizing my collection to what I wear the most, and I've decided that the Splice is the most comfortable frame to wear on a regular basis for me.

I had a pair of Amber Black Iridium Polarized that I cut for an Eye Jacket but was never happy with the look to the point I didn't wear them. This morning I finally got around took me two hours to Dremel & Sanding the edges up for a Gunmetal Splice.


Here is one of many more customs I plan on doing for my Splice Collection. I will be posting pictures here.

Splice Gunmetal, Polish Black, Gunmetal Icon, Amber Black Iridium Polarized

Never heard of Splice but I sure like it, lol!!!! Thanks for adding to my addiction!!!!
 
Those lenses look very nice in that frame. I can't wait to see what other customs you will be doing.
 
Amber Black Iridium Polarized is a bit special. I mostly use mine when skiing and cycling since it brightens up everything, improves contrast while still being dark enough to work in full sunshine and snow. The colors are a bit off so I rarely use it when not doing sport activities.
 
I have a more Splices coming soon. Not just lens cutting but a few paint jobs as well I just need to figure out color combination with lenses. My collection is very metallic / monochromatic in the grey tones.

Thanks, I have about 3 more Splices I want to do for my collection soon as I can get more Splice Frames/Parts in.

I had lasik last year and now have 20/15 vision and I live right next to the beach so these lenses make everything super sharp for me. This morning we had such terrible fog so I tried the ABP on to see what it would do, I was shock how well I could see. It felt like it gave me an extra 30 feet. I wish I could get more ABP lenses but there so damn hard to find now.
