JDM Style Tail Lights

[Noddle]

you reckon you could do the little reflector in the rear bar?

The Round or Square one ?

It looks like it has a backing on the lens itself, so I'm not sure whats in between them, it may have reflective material or something,

Can I make them ? probably not.

I don't want to destroy the ones I have to see how it works.

Finished.....

I found that the mold of the outer tail light I took, was missing a 'step', I did not find this till I tried to fit the outer 'chrome ring'.

When I compared this to the original lens, I saw the small difference, I had to pack spacers to the mounting point of the chrome ring, about 3-4 mm worth,

from the outside you would not notice it.

I'll have to talk to my brother and put my original hand made lens in his lathe and cut a 'step', and make another mold of it.

but, other than that, I'm very happy

Hi,

I'll make a change in the outer lens mold, and make 1 set, and see how they come out, (it may take a month)

I'm not sure on how much I should ask for a 'set', but I need to figure out what they cost me in time a martial.

but I have seen originals go for, mid $600
