Glassed Rear Custom Etched Z logo Check It Out
Saturday, June 25, 2005 11:49 AM
So I finally got my rear deck lid finished. I've been putsing around on it for quite a while now. The Z logo in it is custom etched into plexiglass and it lights up. The pics are kind of grappy it looks better in person. What do you guys think about it?









Here's the link to my car domain page incase the pics don't show or you wanna see more pics of my car. Check out my Cardomain Page

Please keep in mind that this is my first attempt at anything like this and I know it's not perfect but I think it looks pretty good. Also I know the flames look kinda funny since they're black and the back ground is red. Usually they are the other way around but I didn't want that much red and I wanted them to look like they were flowing off the back seat.

The line under the Z24 looks crooked, but what did you make that out of?

I agree. If your gonna do fiberglass work, do it right and make it look good, nice and smooth. the idea is great though, very original! I like.

Not bad for a first timer. Lets see some pics of it installed and the logo lit up.

Yeah so I got it installed yesterday and when it's in the car you can't see any of the blemishes or anything. It looks really good in the car. I'll try to get pics of it later today or something, but really have to wait untill it's darker out to get a decent shot of the logo lit up. I had it on last night and once it's dark out it lights up pretty bright. I have 4 red led's behind it.

^^^^ the red part isnt the flames...i think. The grey part looks to be a pretty decent looking set.

Yeah you may be right.. Now that I look at it the other way the grey looks like the flames.

Yeah the gray part is the flames. I didn't want to make the flames red because like I said above I didn't want that much red and since the seats are greyish black it kind of looks like the flames are flowing off of the back seat when the seat is up. Sorry I didn't get pics of it installed yet. I was going to do it yesterday but then I went to the lake all day instead.

I'm sure its gonna look good installed. It's like an optical illusion. I think my eyes were drawn to the red so I couldn't see the flames until i was told about them, weird!
I wish I had talent to do that stuff though, way to go!

I think it looks good. For a first time thats a heck of a lot better turnout than i would get. I like how you said that its your first time and you know that its not perfect but then you get the responses, i wouldnt put that in my car blah blah blah when thats never what you asked. lol. some people like to waste posts i guess. But good job it looks good installed. Deffinitly like the idea of the light up Z logo.
