Get a fine grit sand paper once opened. And sand till your heart is content. Then sand some more.

Also, take your time doing the opening process, I got a little too greedy and did it fast, and I paid for it.

Just take your time.

And I thought you were doing the mg and black?

Thinking mineral grey with the black shroud and tinted reflector would look good man.
