Re: Rectangular headlight and tail light lenses
I read an article about a month ago about some “clear” filament and they said it was more opaque than clear, so I really haven’t given that much thought. I’ll do some more research there. In the mean time, today I made a silicone mold and tried casting them in clear epoxy. It looks promising so far, but I won’t know for sure until I pop them out of the mold tomorrow. Thanks for the 3D print suggestion!

Re: Rectangular headlight and tail light lenses
My first attempt casting one of the stock Globeliner tail lights in clear epoxy resin. Definitely room for improvement, but it might work. I need to refine the silicone mold process a bit and figure out how to eliminate tiny air bubbles, especially on the headlight which was really bad. I also ordered some dye since I’ll need red, blue, green and amber.
