The edge thing is what escaped me when I did it. Perhaps he can keep the edge a little cleaner when embedding the leds. It has to be clean for the leds to light the design properly. I ended up cutting the led sill and lighting from below as I have not the resources he has.

can you imagine a 3D hologram type setup up staring at you when you walk up? Skulls 'floating' above the intake

That would be sick. Burning oil or fog for the suspended medium, and a projector is needed. I've done this for full scale entertainment. Multiple projectors were used and took us a ton of time to get it right.

The best one i've seen is the Tu-Pac experience

Try buffing the edges, should make it smooth. I'm gonna try and light up the Skulls, but the edging varries in thickness. I won't know how it looks till this weekend. There is another car show on Saturday near the house, so I have a long Friday planned and hope to have this good to go for the track friday night and show on Sat.

Got a box in the mail today boys !

110% satisfied with the end results ,

I was kept up to date Threw the whole process, I never thought that he could work with my first choice in designs , And Christian pulled it off flawlessly ! He should be writing books on customer satisfaction. He is a pleasure to work with , And i could'nt be happier , Acctually i'm honored to be one of his first customers.

I see some great stuff coming out of "foolmoon_designs" in the near and distant future.

Photos soon , I have to get some new bolts and finnally toss the original ones.

Thanks Christian , Talk to you sat.
