I'm leaving it the way it is! Like the letters GE mean: Good Enough!
Dude tell me about it, this is the crappiest plastic ever. Literally touching my radio made it break in several more places, it was... aggravating. One thing broke, then another, and another. I'll rephrase my previous statement: it took a lot of glue, and a LOT of patience. In a way, I was kind of anticipating it all to fail in a spectacular pile of super-glue-glazed plastic chunks, but it all went together just fine. :3

Thanks for mailing that thingy btw.
