Black acrylic normally doesn't transmit light so you have to go with a lighter tint or a gray/bronze sheet.

Does anyone know where I can get a really nice DARK and I mean dark window tint where only light shines through to the outside of the case? I plan on mounting an HD LCD to the inside of a piece of glass and then applying the tint, that way only the white logo i display onscreen will show as everything else on the screen will be black to give the illusion the logo is a precut design with a light behind it.

Any help is needed, Thanks!
