It's all in how you lay it up. There's actually a DIY in one of the new vip mags.

I remember seeing one of these on a forum once. I believe they used mirrors inside the enclosure to give it the illusion that it goes all the way back.
I could be wrong.

Hold a mirror facing another mirror and youll see how it works
They prob used a mirror tint on the inside of the glass facing a mirror inside the enclosure with the lights placed between these two mirrors
its just a never ending reflection that continues to bounce from one mirror to the other

I love Infinity glass. Definitely going to try and use it in a couple spots in my xB as it undergoes a rebuild.
