So you want a shadow on both right and the left side of the reddish strap? Tried making 2 layers out of that rep strap right on-top of each other with each layer dropping a shadow to either side of it? Just a thought... dunno if it'll work.

As kotik said, split them in two.

And to answer your second question, make sure you uncheck "Use Global Lighting", if you do NOT want one light source, but different lighting and shadowing on different layers.
