    Now THIS Is A Custom 3rd Tail Light

    It's a temporary thing, I just wanted to see what it looked like. Not too sure if I want to keep it or not though. If anyone has any questions or comments, here's the thread to do so. What do you think?




    That's got to be the cleanest living DX I've ever seen.

    Well if there is more want of it, I mine as well, heh. But yeah. I have the exact measurments you need on a jpg of the 3geez letters if anyone wants it (to save you measuring and adjusting and stuff, which was the most tedious part of this project). It's still early, so I'll see how many people respond, and if there isn't enough demand, I'll just PM the people who want it or IM them or something the image you need to print.

    All I ask is a $5.00 charge, that's all...








    Haha, j/k. I wouldn't charge my fellow 3gee members for something normally found free. Heh. Have fun w/ this guys.

    Because you guys are the threesomes I know of from the Bay Area. Mr. Busted Blue would be the 4th, but that would mean the 4 of you would have your 3rd brake lights say "4guyz."

    sorry it's off topic.., but how are you gonna do this? have it go off a light sensor or something? i'm sure it's feasible.., i was just wondering how you're gonna set it up?

    Yeah, no problem man. I'll send you specs and attributes as well so that your measurments are dead on, and all you have to do is extra trimming. I'll PM that to you ASAP.

    The logo was printed onto a poster paper material. Very thick paper, thicker than construction paper. And yes, it's an overlay. I can PM you a short how-to if you would like. Actually. I think I just might do one right now and throw it in this thread. I'm gonna get on that.

    Can you take a pic a bit further away so one can see all three lights? Looks cool though.

    Seems like a good idea, but aren't you afraid of the paper fading or becoming brittle in the sun?

    How about an actual sized pic? So I could make a template out of it in black out tape & use that instead.

    Yeah. This is only a temporary thing, until I find a good enough material to where I know I can cut with it, and it won't fade.

    However, tomorrow I am going to have the actual size cut out for all of you. I'll use the PhotoDraw at my school because I have no Photoshop to work with here. I should have the cut out done by tomorrow. I'll keep you all updated.
