I was thinking fish tanks . as for the cvt covers you could buy 3 and do exchange, 50cc then 2 150cc one long and one short . John The only issue I see with that is while they will all interchange, they are not the same... for example, mine has lettering milled out and it's kind of a neat piece because of it. Then you have the guys that have cut them out to show off the their clutch, etc. |

That's really cool how it creates that "pattern" after being dipped.

That's really cool how it creates that "pattern" after being dipped. it's almost creepy the way it lays down on the mannequin arm... |

found a cheaper method for you if you just want to swirl a couple of colors. it will probably take a lot of trial and error but it will cut the cost dramatically if you're planning to do many.
this guy seems to have the process mastered. unfortunately he doesn't give out too much info on the process but in the comments he mentioned he sands, primes, then sands again before dipping using humbrol paint.
here is one set of vids that explains the process. water temp and borax seem to be the main secrets.
it looks so awesome (well, the first 2 vids look great) i'd really like to try this on my scoot.

That method is used for guitars a lot.... The other method isn't that expensive if you know where to look for the film and supplies.
