Very happy with how this came out!

I carved the Kanji logo out of the solo seat.

Put some red led's in, wanted to hide the lights from view. Glued the led's to the roof of the solo seat, and then put a mirror on the bottom of the cowl to reflect the lights back through the carving.

Just a couple of lights.

What did you use to carve it out? Dremel and exacto? Did you put a piece of lexan or plexiglass underneath it?
 
Awesome, nice effect!!!!!!! I am also curious how you cut the hump so precisely. I had trouble cutting it for the grab bar.
 
I used a roto-zip, or dremel; same thing depending on where you live? Sheetrock attachment bit. Hump is hollow, 4 screws hold on the bottom plate. Printed the Kanji logo resized from photoshop.
Go slow! The ABS plastic re-melts to it's self because the dremel is soo fast. Glued a mirror to the bottom base plate and then glued led strip to the roof of the hump.
I wired the led's to the parking lights so that I can lock the steering, turn on parking lights and pull the key. :whistle:

Piece of cake!

This looks bad ass! I was actually thinking about doing this a while back but hadn't seen it done yet. Great job!
 
if i ever get around to getting a hump for mine i'll be doing this then more then likely glueing lexan on the inside to seal it. it looks cool thats for shure
