first off i tried search before posting this but found nothing helpful, ok, im looking at making a set of headlights for my car (flush mount to replace my popups) because i cant justify paying $1000 for something that couldnt posibly cost near that to make. ok anyhow onto my question,
i need to know what resin or composite material i should use for the clear lens, i want something that wont distort the light. also what technique should i use to make this without any bubles in it.
before posting this what i thought of for a solution is:
I found some molding resin on fibreglast.com and i figured if i made both a male and female mold to force the resin to keep exact deminsions of the lens and make some form of infusion system. i havent worked with infusion at all so i dont know anything about the process, the way i thought of doing this was by runing tubes from the male side of the plug into a container of resin and on the female plug have the vacume source ( i have a shop vac would that work or do i need to invest in something else?)
ok, i hope that my quiestions/explanations were coherent enough, thanks in advance
