When ordering a translite online, what am I actually getting? Is it 100% complete and I just replace it? Meaning the entire piece is ready to slip into head and I'm done? Or is it just the paper artwork that I have to attach to the plastic/plexiglass somehow?
Thanks

If it's modern it's a rolled piece of art on paper/plastic that you unroll and place in the already present backglass. Yes plastic channels go over the 4 sides to hold it on

Its just the artwork printed on a Mylar sheet or something similar. You don’t have to attach it to anything. It slides into where your other one is. There’s no adhesive or anything like that.

This is why collectors are buying up the older Backglasses for art pieces!! At PAGG I've seen them go for $500!!
