Or you could cast them from crystal clear resin with the right tint/dye added.

Wow! That is one tip that never occurred to me! What other tips are you holding too close [sm=punching.gif]
Ask and learn, young padewan....or something like that.

Try Envirotex crystal clear casting resin, you can get it at Micheal's and similar craft stores. see here: http://www.eti-usa.com/consum/castresn/castresn.htm

I have used it to make turn signal lenses on car restorations...the tail light lenses on my Cobra were made this way. 4+ years and they still look like factory new. I used some plastic dye that I bought at a plastics supply house but I have heard you can use any clear epoxy or polyester compatible coloring agents.
