BikerScout007 Posted May 14, 2018 Share Posted May 14, 2018 I have been scouring the internet looking for the perfect lens that will work. Any suggestions? This was for a totally unrelated costume, but I bought this stuff to make green lenses https://www.ebay.com/itm/One-Way-Solar-Reflective-Mirror-Privacy-Window-Tint-Film-Anti-UV-Heat-Stickers/273112213537?ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT&var=572375875720&_trksid=p2057872.m2749.l2649 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jakeputt Posted May 14, 2018 Author Share Posted May 14, 2018 So that will meet CRL standards for the lens? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ferra Posted May 15, 2018 Share Posted May 15, 2018 This will work as its both green and reflective, my friend did a Gree helmet and his color was really good! I used a SHOC lens for mine, from the football helmets, great color! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ferra Posted May 15, 2018 Share Posted May 15, 2018 Try the green tint thing at a hardware store, or online if you can get accurate pictures from the seller before buying, just to make sure you get the correct clor(some of the pics show a blueish color if you know what I mean) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grumpy Posted May 18, 2018 Share Posted May 18, 2018 If you can get or make a clear plastic lens, I have plenty of the green reflective tint you can have. No problem. I bought a roll of it online, and have plenty leftover. Even the clear plastic from things such as poster frames will work. (That's what I've used on past builds.) It's flexible, and easy to trim.

Barber Posted May 18, 2018 Share Posted May 18, 2018 I have been wondering this same thing. It seems like the football helmet lenses that were used in the past are no longer available. The window tinting sounds like a great way to go and the route I'll be going with on my Kashyyyk. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have found a great resource for the lens for the reflective tint to adhere too. Once I get the lens I will hit you up for the tint. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KO22 Posted May 19, 2018 Share Posted May 19, 2018 I have gotten some green tinted lens from trooperbay in the past. I don’t know if they have what you are looking for but it should be worth a look. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
