Very nice how-to video! Much appreciated!!
Thats a smart idea. Using this idea it would be possible to make windows for cars.
Cool inexpensive tutorial
Converting an 1/18 Chiron to Sky View, helped a lot
Genius!
I just want to say... I really enjoy this channel.
Perfect timing with this vidio. I was thinking about the original vidio sovI went on to you tube to show my son and found this vidio instead. Awesome stuff!
Thanks bro
Awesome
Awesome tip! Thank you for sharing!
Nice idea thank you.👍🏼👍🏼
Cool car, cool idea, cool guy 👌
I'm glad I've seen this video, I've got a Porche 911 model car that's got one of its lenses missing, they were those little diamanté style lights you git in some of the older model cars , but if I can't find a replacement , I think I'll use this idea ... brilliant tip thanks ☺👍
I have a 50 Buick convertible that needs headlights,This helps ,thanks!
Very awesome
This is AWESOME!!! Learning something new every video thanks👍👍😁
Excellent! only rest the video tutorial about circuits lights and finish the best job custom step by step.
Ever thought about neon running lights. Like an under glow effect.
That is if you havent already. Awesome work like always.
Great info. Thanks for sharing this!
"We're going to try tha-" *VRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR*
Lol
Genius idea 💪🏼
Thank you so much love the two videos
Thank you :)
Love it
thanks for the video, I always learn something :) excellent work
I think you need a vacuum pump, maybe make a bag from the two halves by cementing them together? Heat and pump, bag shrinks to shape. Someone could start an industry from this.
Vacuum former works better and I will have a video coming out soon!
I'm not into customs, but, this is a nice tip for smaller LEDs, which can leave different brights on the just drilled holes.
Nice
Thank you for the video, i just started customizing hot wheels,, im doing a honda integra and i cut off the headligth holes cause i want to add fronts , rear and blinkers all functioning i just didnt know how to make the plastic parts , i got a couple of vids on my channel if you wana check them out
Cool van. (First view and comment and like)
Hey...you deserve a like ;)
Another excellent informative video. Btw I left you a reply message on Patreon and also edited my pledge. ;-)
Also, the plastic I was working with got too hot and actually caught fire! Good thing I had some water nearby when it did happen!
Good material...could you make colored lens for tailights on revell 1:64 cars the same way perhaps? Im in need of a few tail light lens needless to say but not sure how to color or dye? The clear plastic
I haven't tried that yet, maybe something in the future.
how do you make the lights blink?
Are you using the leds from Nick? and how do you glue them on the lenses? Just a drop on the led? And what glue are you using then?
They sure are. The lenses are glued with window maker glue and I hot glued the lights to that.
Awesome that's a good tip.. and got a question wondering if you happen to have the pennzoil 72 Chevy c10 from green light and if you do does the hood open
I don't have that one :(
Darn ok and thanks for your reply just wanted to see. It not a huge deal but i just like the ones woth opening hoods i find they look. Sweet with them open. Wile displayed in a showcase
Thanks for helping me out with this. When will you do a face reveal?
where can i buy those plastic protector? how to name them in google? thanks

I would try something like this but I just can't stand the acrid smell of hot plastic! I tried something similar to this once and the result just about knocked me down and caused a burning sensation in my eyes!
This has zero smell, I'm assuming it was thinner plastic and got too hot.
Can I buy some of them from you .
Now to find some colored plastic.....
A high lighter pen will color your lens. Pick your color.... Phils Custom Wheels tip. On you tube.
Can u make knight rider car
Once all is installed. Make sure your local post office cares enough to send off your package properly, this way you are not paying a 12 year old to repair your custom....
Pretty sure they played tackle football with it..
Adam Ackley??? lol it is Andy Ackley sir!! Check out my IG account @androidmedic
OMG, I am so sorry! I was going off memory and obviously got it wrong. I was kinda close? I'll make it up to you! Sent you a request BTW.
@@WheelsNThangs lol it's all good. My Memory sucks, so i likely would have done the same thing!! Thanks for the follow.
Andy Ackley :)
Damn my guy wasting card protector cases 🤯
