Basically...does anyone know of a spray paint or some sort of product that adheres to clear plastic and gives it a frosted glass look and still lets a decent amount of light through?

try some translucent clear vinyl. later. -
well this is gonna have to be a paint or coating of some kind because the piece is too small to wrap with vinyl or anything like that....what i'm wanting to do is, i've got two 12" LED light strips, and i wanted to mount them into the rear deck, or the rear pillars and then do the frosted thing so the light is more even and soft looking.There are no black and white suspension answers!!!!!!!!!!!Comment

i know they make what you are talking about. a buddy used it on plexi glass for some models (architecture school) he did. What I always did was sand the plastic to give the frosting. steel wool will give you a very soft translucency.
good luck.Comment

I have two LED light strips that used to be behind my grill, but I took them off, and I'm going to mount them in either the pillar behind the rear seat, or in the rear deck. They wont just sit on the surface though, I want to cut a hole and put them behind, and fill in the space with some plastic that looks like frosted glass so the light isnt so intense, and looks smoother. So basically....just some fancy blue lights on the interior. I really could put them anywhere besides those two spots though, I have to think about it, but either way, I want to try to pull this frosted glass effect off.There are no black and white suspension answers!!!!!!!!!!!Comment

lol @ mike, thanks heh. I realized where i was gonna put them is illegal, so now i think i may take out the back seat, and cut a hole in the carpet right below the front of the rear seat....still using the frosted glass thing off course
