I don't mind that first one but I've always hated alien and skull headlights. I just don't get it. They look poxy and yet everyone likes them. Must be just me.
Whatever floats your boat I guess.

the plasticine part is cheap, but the rubber is fucking expensive part to make the mold...!!!

You can do it the 'old fashioned' way. Make a plasticine mould - plaster of paris off that - fibreglass from that. If you use lots of lube on the plaster it's not too hard to just tap gently it with a hammer and break it away. Sometimes (depending on shape) you can use the plaster mould over and over again. I've made replica fibreglass bits for old bikes, trucks and hotrods using that method (originally a panelbeater by trade).quote:Originally posted by watkins

You can also make moulds using paper mache (paper strips, flour & water) instead of the plaster. When you're finished you just soak it in warm soapy water and the paper mache disintegrates.
Beeswax would also work. It only takes slight warmth and beeswax just falls away. They use wax a fair bit in the ceramic & masonry trades (dunnies etc).
yeaaah uve got the idea Gitz! []quote:Originally posted by Gitzy

geez your bloody quick todd [:0]
never would of picked it for a v rod. i use the mask for a screen saver
Harry go onto showyomoto and look at the gallery, then click streetfighters, so many good pics in there .
I failed with my mold so I am strongly considering buying one, might give it one more shot the cheap way though, cause I want to get something a bit flatter.. What kind of lights do they use? Any idea Gitzy?
cheer's mate i'll do that.......quote:Originally posted by JDinOZ
