Will be doing a complete interior overhaul here soon. And before I get started I need some ideas. Wanting to put "BLACKOUT" in the headliner. Some of the ideas include making a raised portion, stitching it in, etc. But my favorite idea, and the one I want to go with, is making a plexiglass window that spells BLACKOUT, and back lighting it in red. Want it back lit for sure, anybody have any ideas, any way of doing this to be different? Going to put it from drivers to passenger side, in between the overhead display and the dome light.

Maybe get it cut on a water table in black acrilic and put red led strips to make it glow?

Would that be possible to get slightly big with it? I don't want a tiny etching in the middle of the headliner.

Im thinking of something pretty big that runs from left to right across the front part of the roof. Say maybe 3 inches from the outside like where its not as angressive of a roll. Do it in either cursive or blocked, maybe script?

Probably will do block or script. And definitely like the idea of black acrylic. Will be heading over there to talk to him tomorrow and I'll give him that idea. See what he can do.

The black and red would match your theam. Get them to do black out up front and hemi in the rear, or Hemi Ram in the rear to match the front in length.

Double like ^^. Have to see how much that costs, as he is also putting in black carpet and black leather seats at the same time. Definitely doing the front one for now though.

Thanks. Have to see what all they can do. Hopefully can come up with something awesome. Whatever it turns out to be. It'll be backlit in red.
