Milton,

you must ray trace two separate images and write them out and assemble 
them in Photoshop or Canvas etc

angle=3
ray
png LEFTfig

angle=-6
ray
png RIGHTfig

If you want higher res image replace 'ray' with 'ray 1200,1600' or some 
other appropriate value of image width/height
remember to turn on antialiasing too.

In the setting you can play around with ribbon quality. I forget the 
exact settings, just snoop around in the settings

Good luck
