Looking good, you should take some pics of the repair

Looks good but I would like to see the repair too...

Pic of the back. Not the best silicone work. I rushed it and didnt tape it off like I was suppose to. Its a 3/8" piece of glass I took to a local shop and had cut to fit the curve of the front glass. Guy had to free hand the cut so it wasnt as precise as I was trying to make it. Still came out pretty good though.

I think you did a great job. a little extra silicone never hurts...

You can clean it up with a razor blade.

Some time in the last 2 days the glass brace pulled away from the back wall. I freaked out a little when I touched the brace and it moved. I took a better look and there is a pretty big gap. I'm trying to decide what to do. For now I've removed the lights and put a clamp across the middle. Any ideas?

I'm frustrated and can't decide what's the best course at this time due to time and money constraints.

I would contact Aqueon and ask them as they are a major provider of bowfronts. They should be able to sell you the frame.

Any other ideas? I have the part number for top frame but scared it will break just like the last one. Thanks.
