you can always practice with some wood..... if ya try to make your own make a test one first with cheap material. it doesnt have to be billet on your first attempt. but hell a dremel works for alot.... try to get one they are cheap!
i use mine alot... as well as my hot glue gun. i also use that alot!

i started modifying my skull hitch cover just the other day
i got me some prewired leds from oznium and bought some extra resistors and diodes and started making mine lite up
ill post a video in a min. i gotta upload it. tho i do want a few more leds... my holes i drilled into the sockets are not quite even. so a few more leds and ill be able to just open up the hole to one large one and put all the leds in evenly from side to side.

you could even slap some leds on the badge make it blink at people with your turn signals, just be sure to use yellow or white leds. dont want any cops to get ya.

your humor is your and mine is mine plus i smile alot. and im not ashamed of it.
i like my skull i think its pretty funny.... hes got the WAZ UP tongue hangen out.hahaha
ok video finally finished up loading.
and i had the mouth leds also dimming but i desided it looked better to just lite them up fully since it is pointed down and i already had 3 diodes and wires on the mouth to keep it lite up at all times with the parking lights and brake/turn signal lights.


before the leds. i might try using some of my niteshade tint over the leds to make them blend in with the black for during the day.

w00t, finally found a store with VHT Niteshades The tails have been completely smoked; all the lights (tail, brake, reverse) still shine through just fine. Pics probably tomorrow, both night pictures from tonight and day pictures from tomorrow (and I'm warning you ahead of time, the car is dirty, so the tails look funny being solid black... give it a few days of driving and they'll be nice and covered in salt so they match the rest of the car lol).

*edit: Also, I'm thinking I'm going to smoke the headlights instead of going Euro yellow with them; I catch enough s**t having non-oem headlights on a mustang as it is, I'll never hear the end of it with yellow projectors lol. I'll get that done this weekend (probably friday night, pictures saturday or sunday). Also, we smoked the corners on my friend's EG; I got him to sign up here but he's been too busy to post. I'll throw up the pics of his car in his intro thread when he finally posts lol.
