It really does look good, I think its actually part of the headlight when I look. If I believe it is, then other people won't know its a sticker. I just need to redo part of it, only because I'm a noob.

this was a shitty quick job
:l
not proud of it but it is wha it is
original headlight...
with larger sticker idea made from high res image so it
what it may look with clear bulbs
very rough cut out of the larger sticker going pass just the amber corner and extending to the turnsignals
notice how it fades from the turn signals to the amber corners... clear to opaque
...im sure real world applications wont look this way
but some experimenting can produce similar results

Hmmm that concept looks good, but probably wont look too nice because the corner will probably wash out the lines you are trying to show on the sticker.
If you get a prototype going, show us!

:l
see...
http://digart.img.digart.pl/data/img/vol0/...oad/2382606.jpg
at the corners it wouldnt be see through at all
like i said i wont be testing this
just an idea for him to explore if he ever wanted to offer a more realistic (higher priced) sticker
and with this new overlay thing he has going it would look killer
