I actually kinda like the clock...i wonder how it will look with only one row of cystals around the clock...I'm not a fan of bling but that looks really nice! great job!

No way you like,,cool man really cool thanks..cause I know its a stretch for you.....I think there are a many ways that it can be done..since you don't like to much bling maybe about 2-3mm spacing between rows or even use smaller crystals..The cool thing about this is if any one decides to do it themselves they can do whatevers and you know it will come out different...

yeah I saw them..and wanted one but like you said hard to find plus they cost a grip..I would love to stick a rolex dial in there..I am trying to see about having one custom made..with some emerald and crystal baguet #'s...probably will never happen though..it all ready has a rolex feel to it with like a presidential with a diamond bezel..once I get my wood kit in they it should really look swell..
PANCAKES!

That's the one I wanted as well sometime in the near future! :biggthumpup:
Talk to Freddie at Auto Fashion, he should be able to get you it, but it's not cheap!

that's not bad at all. Yah, the JP clocks are occasionally on YAJ, but it's pretty rare to see them.

How long did this take you? How many crystals did you use and what sizes?

it took me a between 2-3 hours..I used about 100 crystals mostly 4mm and on the wider areas I added 2mm crystals to feel in the gap...

you use a hot glue gun?
zion_97
07-27-2007, 03:38 PM
no glule gun for this..way to messy for these..I used BEacons 3n1 glue..its water proof and weather proof....

^^ coo, did you have to use a dremel to drill out holes or did you just use the flat crystals with glue? You do real nice work, I like it!
zion_97
07-27-2007, 03:47 PM
I thought about using a dremel at first but I figured that if I effe up I would have to by another peace...so flatbacks are what I ended up using if you messup just pull them off clean them and reaply them...Thanks!

K fellas..I am painting my center console and had my clock out. So I decided to open it up and add some crystals. I also scraped the black paint around the bezel of the clock exposing the chrome underneath..now I think it has more of an elegance Rolex look..here are some pics

Off the car, two rows doesn't look crowded, but in the car it looks like two rows was too much... maybe
But the refracted light on the face looks so cool! Can't wait for night shots

Just found out I can get flatbacks for about 5 bucks for a 100. I'm looking into getting the Black Diamond ones???
Green Poupon

They have black diamond ones??
burgy
02-02-2008, 01:14 PM
Yup, I got 144 of em. I figured they would be a little more subtle in an all black Q! I'm gonna wait to find the right kind of adhesive before I put them in though.

Do you have any pics? I'm very curious what it looks like.

they looklike shiny black rocks...they are not transparent but opaque..^^^^^^^^^
burgy
02-02-2008, 08:45 PM
They aren't completely Opaque, but they are MUCH darker than the usual crystals...not great pics, but you get an idea.
In the light....

Not in direct light..

They look a lot like a gunmetal finish.

At first I really didn't like crystals (at least in my car) they make me think of pretty pretty princess. BUT, Garson is turning me on to the idea. I'm trying to think of unique and SUBTLE spots on the car they could be put. Any idea's?

thats how was to untill they started pieling up and then I was like damn this shiat looks pimpn..buts its not for everyone...if you are into hip hop and blang blang then its cool but if you are not and into rock or something like that I can see where someone would try to clown the idea of crystals...I get it all the time from folks around here..some people say thats just stupid while others say DAAAMMMNN that shit right der is off the hook...you can tell by my choice or words who is who...
