    just get a thin piece of plexy 1/8" thick, since that part of the pannel is fairly square i'm sure you could cut out a square of fiberglass and glass in the plexy. Then once you have it all glassed in, buy some vinyl camaro decals and place them on the outside in the correct position before you paint. Then once you lay down your basecoat then peel up the letters thus giving you clear letters on the pannel. Then Lay down a good clear coat over the front and should look pretty sweet. The only thing is that i don't know if you need to rough up the back of the plexy behind the letters in order for it to grab any light. It seems as though i've seen people use plexy and if it's not roughed up on the back it does not show the colored light as well. I don't know well sounds like a great project good luck.

    What about seams? do you think that I could fill in the seams and what would ahear to both the plexi and the body part?

    again I want to thank everyone for their input!

      I have been thinking about putting in two kind of light in it. One for running light, and one that is brighter for brake light.

      I don't want it to be KITT style just running and brake light.

        fiberglass resin bonds to alot of stuff, just make sure you scuff up the area you are going to bond, it may be hard but it's definatley possibe. I think as long as you are able to secure it from both sides. I would do it but right now with school and work i have no time for anything. Good luck and let me know how it turns out.
