I'm currently using mirrored window tint on some packaging plastic. Looks great in pics, can see through them pretty easy. Would like to find some actual lenses though.

I ordered a mirrored motorcylce helmet faceshield from these guys...

http://www.helmetsetc.com/detail.asp?product_id=DH-SHIELD-FLIPUP-MIRROR

This will be my first time working with this, so we'll see what happens.

I'm sure I'll have some material left over. If you like, I can send you a portion of the shield to make your own, for free of course...

I am starting my TX now and i am very excited. It sounds like there are still issues finding a good silver mirror lens that is flat enough to glue in. I did a quick search on Amazon.com and found the following results. Does anyone have any experience with any of these lenses or manufacturers? I think they may work better then the helmetsetc because it looks like they have good flat area around the ear attachment. One concern that i have is how transparent the lens is. We all want a mirror that will not show the eyes. Any thoughts?
