How did you put the griptape on and have it be flat?
that light panel are really thin, stick the light panel first, then cover the rest by using griptape.

Do you have a link to the light panel? And what did you make the graphic out of? So you don’t even notice any slight bumps? I am planning an iron man theme and I was going to go with a custom griptape and have the arc reactor in the middle but I guess I’ll cut out the arc reactor griptape and it would be so cool if I could put this led under it!

Those turning lights are genius! The flexible LED side-strip also looks amazing next to the contour of the deck. Well done, this is great inspiration!

You cut out the deck so the light panel would sit flush?
according to that taobao link, the light panel is only 0.3mm thick, its pretty much unoticeable i guess unless u look really close

haven’t cut out the deck, light panel are quite thin…unnoticeable if covered griptape. also it are cuttable, u can cut the light panel into the shape u want to to reduce the noticeable bump.
