Curious about these "acrylic" led tubes
So im curious, been looking for a while now cant seem to find anything but now i have a photo that i can show you guys to better describe what im saying. this guy from stancenation has custom "acrylic tubes" i was wondering if any one could answer a few questions on them.
are they flexible?
where can i find some?
can i pick what color, specific color?
and how easy is the install if any one has done this before?
Heres a photo of the tubes.
Thanks guys

search google for acrylic..
the answer is no they are not flexible..they are actually very hard.
plastic tubes, yes they are flexible, but again, not acrylic.
this guy most likely heated up the rod in oven or other high temp enviro and bended them into that shape. I can see that he didnt do such a godo job though..lulz..looks totally homemade, with the top rod, not even remotely having smooth curvatures going around the corner.
he had the idea right, but the workmanship is whack. if you look at the tube, you can see he made slits on the rear side of the tube to refract the led light being shined into the tube. but look at the spacing. it looks like it was done freehand by a blind person..
this video should give you some ideas to where you need to begin.
