Casting indicator lenses and other small parts

Recommended Posts

Hi guys, newbie here with a Vr6 swapped Rado, and i have noticed a lot of parts for our cars are now NLA and fetching silly prices !

I need some indicator lenses (amongst other bits !) and have thought about trying to make some using a casting resin that is very popular on youtube.

Here is a link to a video where someone casts some BMW Isetta lenses........has anyone here tried this or got the stuff to do it ? as one could then also make many small NLA parts like the Mk1 speaker grills and the rear hatch hinge covers etc etc .

seems like a good idea, if you have the time and patience perhaps..

 

Btw, post up some pics of your car

nice, unique colour.  I have the same tt alloys on mine (actually up for sale soon..)

Was the cabin also converted to a late spec?
