i got really bored in my design studio class listening to the teacher show people how to use photoshop....so i started playing with my keys and neaded eraser....

i stuck together my key and the key fob, and starting thinking that i should actually mold these together as one unit, similar to many of the newer keys, or the ones that have been on luxury models for several years.

anyways....if i buy another key fob, and get another key made w/o the plastic, i think it will look alot slimmer, and it wont look as big since ill be sanding shit down. i just used the entire eraser on this and didnt try to really remove any excess material. i also think i can sand into the key fob to mounjt the key lower, but there isnt much room because the battery sits in the back half of it. anyways...i think im gonna attempt this haha. nothing to loose except a few bucks.

by the way....what should i use that would be suitable for this application? kitty hair? bondo?

haha. that looks funny. its a sweet idea and im gonna say, "go for it." post pics and let us know how it turns out because i had that idea too in school on day when playing with a friends VW keys. the key flipped into the fob. i was like, "hmm, what if i attached my key to my fob?" anyways, let me know how it goes.
