[breezer]

[Chuck04]

wasnt to bad to be fair, once done 1 peal back backing and use that as a mask for the ova jst flip it over

[Kenny]

using Chuck04 method it will only cost 15-25 and you will get a sun strip

[Chuck04]

yea exactly, mines the student method, haha always a way around things u can get them off eBay for usualy under a £10 howvever if u want gold, urs flame gold??, may need a bit of looking and may b more expensive, but still should b under 20 and thats a lot cheaper than the real deal

[JustJJ]

*will have to start looking around.... either flame gold or black/grey...not sure.. what d'ya think?

Also if any of you guys see some let me know!!

ooh... Chuck... Im no good at this sorta thing.. but would ya have some sort of template for em?

[Robie]

um ill grab a pic laters and u can judge, yea most likly as my cutting attempt was abit rused so yea u probably can but works for the mo, may re do it with a dark silver sunstrip if i can find 1, any body who does give me a shout pls

ooh... Chuck... Im no good at this sorta thing.. but would ya have some sort of template for em?

um not sorry, firsly depends wat sunstrip u get, the 1 i had was like a big sticker, had white backing, i was able to place it up against the light so that i could mark out the top shap, i then cut this out so that it fitted the shape of the light, all u then need to do is decide the shape of the bottom do u want it like mine kinda curved or more of a c -one look have a look at eyebrows u like and jst play around with the idea, u could always do it on paper first ie put some paper up against it and then mark out the shape, cut it out to see wat u think of it, when ur finally happy use the paper version as a stencle to cut around
