its going. im talking to a company about lenses and i am tweaking a few things that im not happy with. these are things i could probably get away with but its not worth it to me. once the "tweaks" are finished and the lenses are done it will be quick, and the changes shouldnt take too long either.

so this is where im at...
i was talking to my vacuum former about my lenses and until recently my plan was make a fiberglass mold/plug and draw the polycarbonate over that. well in talking to him i learned some things. he said that any pitting or scratches will be reproduced in the lens and any dust that will also be picked up. he said that no matter how hard you try there will always be imperfections in the plug. all these little imperfections will reduce the optical clarity. now even though it maybe minor, i want to maintain my objective and create as high of quality product as possible. so what i have to do now is make the mold/plug in aluminum. so this will set me back a bit.
i will polish the plugs, this will offer a near perfect surface to form over, and again create a high quality product.

thank you. hope fully everyone understands why this is taking so long, and my main goal is to offer a high quality product.
i also wanted publicly thank kyro-2 (the gentleman's car i am using) for his patience and understanding through out this process.
