Still on target - goes LIVE on 15th, this month, this year, this world loll

Already have all of the LED strips pre-fabricated in all of the 5 colors (about 300x strips/micro connectors) and have so far 58 PWM controllers ready in hands (doing another 20 tonight). Blades are done (200x kits total). Nasty....

Got 98 coated panels already cut to Boxster specs/size. However, they aren't etched. Keeping the fruity PMMA fumes for last (smells like crack cocaine... how lucky eh)

Fans lolllllll Below pic is the kinda fans I need

Ready for grab on that GTP site!!! Those registered already should have received a system message by now

I wanted to make sure I got one so I just ordered on the GTP site. I was not entirely sure what to put in for the custom logo - I used a red sox socks eps file but you mentioned about maybe doing an outline. Just let me know what you need from me... I submitted by order - my paypal / email matches my user name on this forum...

That's the best I can do on the "outline" work. That's ready for the laser! Much better than solid... with a good red backlit effect on that, that will get you a few "Go Go Red Sox" coming your way I'm sure



Let me know if you need any revision on that, I'm cool with that. If you are good to go chose option "Custom work" from the dropdown. We'll keep in touch!

Would that work you think?

So the parts in the image in black would be etched and appear with the red backlight whereas the solid white parts would be clear (like a previous version you showed me). If so then I love it and think it's going to look unique and AWESOME!!! My order is already in (I did Custom but also had to pick one of the options above - I want it to look like your image here please....

Correct. Only the black outline will be illuminated!
