hi,
when youve lipped the guards on your gem did u put the plastic inner lining back and trim it? or leave it out.
I dont really want to leave it out but seen as though it gets in the way where the guard lip was there is not really any point in lipping the guards if the plastic is still there.
and if you cut it dirt and shit could still build up...
what did everyone ot there do when they lipped there guards? |
