I'm thinking hoping the red will. My big thing is hoping the sheets will be big enough  :o
If I have to, I can use both sheets of the red

Fierfek! Just checked and the sheets aren't long or wide enough

CraxyD:
Not liking the range finder stalk since all the way back to 1980, I made a mod to the bucket to serve as antennas for this, that and what have ya. The two facing forward on the other side are for range finding and additional data gathering

CraxyD:
OK, got me a visor


Got the pattern made for the cut-out and have annotated extra space to allow for gluing


Before I start cutting and potentially kriff this up...
1) What is the recommended way to cut this, scissors or utility knife?
2) Do I put the tint on before or after my cut?

Uneek Top'El:
I used scissors on mine and heard always tint after you cut it out !!

Peter Johnson from Facebook and from reading Omega's tutorial thread both indicate that the tint should be added after the cutting. PJ suggested trying the scissors I have on a corner and they seem to work fine.

Here's hopin' the Force is with me  :P
