probhably wont kill them, but just go to a shop, if you buy other stuff there, they'd be dicks to charge you, and if they do, it wont be much.

I used this method which is what Intuition recommends.

So you just bought a really nice, custom moldable product. Do yourself a favor and take it to a shop to be professionally molded so you can reap the benefits of having it done properly. Your boots are the most important part of your set up so don't cheap out here.

If you bought them online (or not from a shop) be prepared to spend between $40-$50 to have the liners molded with proper toe caps, padding on problem areas, and ultimately to have someone who knows what they are doing to it properly. Plus, if they screw it up, they will replace them for you but if you try yourself and botch it, it will all be on you.

Go to a shop. Not worth the time, effort, and risk to do it yourself.

They will shape a bit to your foot, but not well and not well to the shell either.

Again, the whole reason to have an Intuition liner is to have a really well fitting liner. If you don't get it done properly it will work, but it will not work well.

Have you used them yet? I got mine molded after I had skied in them for about a year and it stunk up the shop really bad. They said the smell lasted for a really long time.
