Crazy Idea, I want a clear mazda logo..

[Dexter]

...the flying M, for the front of the car....

...anyone have any ideas how to make a clear replica?
i was thinking about somehow making a mold, but i dont know what to use for the clear injection stuff...or how to actually do it.

i could probably get it milled out of plexiglas with a CNC machine or something, but i think that would be out of my budget.


discuss!!

is there a reason behind this? if you want it to blend with your grill, just take it off and paint it black.

bubbbles

Did you get bubbles in that? I tried something similar once with epoxy but I had to can it because I got a bunch of bubbles on the inside

how did you actually do it?

 

[Dexter]

still working out the kinks, im using EL cable to light it, at the moment. the mold was crap though, have to look at better solutions for that.
