[QUOTE="TnT_Sounds, post: 6491603, member: 590406"] If you are wanting to know about getting the frost look yourself, you can do the sandpaper or D/A sander route. Only downfall is swirl marks. But you can buff them out with some lexan polish. The easiest way I have encountered for frosting is getting some etching paste from Hobby Lobby and painting it on the entire piece and you just wipe it off once the chemical reaction is done. No swirl marks or nothing. For lighting it, you can drill some 1/4" sized holes around the edges and put the LEDs in them and fill with some hot glue. Just pretty much use your imagination I guess I've done some fancy things with plexi from just playing with it. [/QUOTE]
