UPDATE: April 23

Badges arrived. I will now wash the car, take pics, find out shipping and final costs for Americans and Canadians, then PM everyone who called dibs. Please check your PMs by tomorrow APRIL 24 for pricing, and if you pay tomorrow, they ship tomorrow. (See forthcoming PMs for details). That is all, I'll be on here again late late tonight to send the PMs.

UPDATE: April 8

Here is a picture of the badges from the manufacturer. 5-10 days vias USPS to me. As soon as they arrive you will know, I will take pic on the car, and those that are on the list will get first dibs on this order.

Cheers,
Courtney

================================================== ==========================
UPDATE:

I ordered the following:
#1,#2,#4

I ordered a very limited supply, just to see what sells (as the margin is veeeery small), then I will order more once these are gone. Here are the lists for each one, and if there are more interested than # of badges, I will start at the top.

OFFICIAL "DIBS"/INTEREST LIST

Badge #1
1) SS/SCking

Badge #2
1) SS/SCking
2) TommySSSC
3) Deathscythe

Badge #4
1) Pyros777

Let me know if you change your mind, or want to be added.

These are a bit more complex to make than just text (well #1 might be cheaper), so the price will be about:
$30 USD
$35 CAD
Still to be finalized when they come in and I have paid all shipping fees, etc. Once the prices are finalized, I will start taking payments and shipping.


================================================== ===============

Thanks for the interest. I am ordering a few anyway just in case. But if you want to insure you get one, post up. Looks like it will be $24USD shipped for Americans and $29CAD shipped for Canadians. The price wold go down by $5 USD/CAD if we got 10 or more in. To pay, send the $24USD or $29CAD to sales@northernstardesigns.com via Paypal. Please provide your address and screen name in the PayPal comments. I will order them on the 1st of April and they will ship as soon as I get them.

Any way to do a similar production of my HARROP badge? People always comment on it. Below HARROP it says "ENHANCED" in silver on a small black bar

I think just ( TVS POWERED ) would be better.

Or ( BOOSTED BY TVS )

Or ( TVS BOOSTED )

I would like to have one as well. Take into consideration the other suggestions. Like WickedSS said, I am one of those that have a tvs and would like to have a badge like the one he has. But I am onboard for a badge since my balt has no other badges on it.

Wow, good suggestions all! I was going to get a discount on a batch of the HARROP Powered ones, but if there is interest in going completely custom, I should be able to order everyone what they want. But the price for the one-offs would be more is all.

Yeah Rodimus, I thought some people might say that :-) I'll be putting it on mine and then you can make up your mind. I can always order more - just the price goes up if it's one at a time is all.

Thanks for the input guys, I'll have to gather up all these ideas and maybe get some prices for you.

*sigh*......My mother swears it's a unisex name...... All I can do is rock back in forth in a corner and chant:
"Courtney Vance, 7.9% of Courtney's are boys too, Just put MR in front of your name......"
After a while I'm OK again.

Sure thing. I haven't ordered them yet, that is just the concept picture from the manufacturer. Just know that once I take a picture of the ones I have ordered, I might have to order more again to meet demand. I place my order tomorrow for 4. Then once those sell I will order more based on further demand.

As for other badges, just let me know what you like and I will get prices. Serious enquiries only though, as I don't want to inundate the manufacturer with quotes for things I won't buy.

Happy modding,
Mr. Courtney, lol

Sure thing. These badges aren't merely stickon decals, so that's a different thing entirely. They are plastic layered with brushed aluminum on top.

Man.. I am definitely interested in some sort of Harrop badge to replace my "GM Stage 2" one..

I like the way it reads: "GM Stage 2 Supercharged"

So I'd probably want something like "HARROP TVS" or "TVS-1320-LSJ"

It may not be possible due to licensing, but I'd want the actual harrop logo, sized up to fit the same width as the stock "Supercharged" badge.

Something like this:

I'll look into it. So far it looked cheaper and easier to just use the font, without having the logo designed and etched but I'll see what the manufacturer thinks. Licensing is a tough one. Some might say that "GM" logo on your old badge was infringing - but it's hard to argue about that when you are offering free advertising......
