*make sure you work in open air tho'
Thanks for the reply... yeah, already tried lacquer thinner and Gunk Engine Cleaner to remove the glue. That stuff's on there for life. HAHA!! I'm thinkin' that it'll be fine, since I have all of the foam removed. I was just hoping to hear from people that have already installed new foam.

And for the picture request:
