Cobaltss.net home of the most complainers! come on guys, there not cheap or cheaply made...UV resistent and everything!

 

I cant wait

 

How are these made to justify. The price. Might consider it

 

when they gonna be available.. todd wants

 

No ****, they look really good dont get me wrong, but thats alot of $ for a badge. Especialy when you can get custom badges to suit your taste for $16(24Designs.com). Obviosly they're not carbon fiber like yours but how much dose a sheet of real carbon fiber cost? Not that much. Id be interested for a better price, but you gotta get enuf to make it worth your while as well. I understand that for sure.

 

If it is of any comparason, the JDM honda badges (The red ones) are about 60 bucks.... and they're not even CF.

 

I wasnt saying you guys make them cheap of anything, I have a hood/trunk thats CF I know the stuff isnt cheap.. I just cant spend that kinda money on something so small.

 

Ok, Ill explain this again..

Its not a sheet of CF, wrap or anything. We had a mold made and its SOLID CF. We remove the gold peice and lay down the mold. We throw the gold peices away lol.

There available on our website.

 

Haha you guys shouldn't throw the gold pieces away. I'm sure there are a few people who would buy them.

 

Agreed about complainers. I think some people need to find a cheaper hobby since everything is always to expensive. I can guarentee i will be ordering one soon. I have been looking for a quality carbon fiber bowtie and finally there is one available.


Yea and that $16 bucks for one of those badges isnt the same quality. The finish on my badge from 24designs is **** already. Wish i would have never spent the money on it. I could have put that money toward a good quality product. Obviously people dont realize what a brand new bowtie even cost. I even get wholesale prices and a new one isnt cheap. This isnt a bad price at all. CF bowtie ftw


Agreed. Quality=$

 

Der... your dont read to good, do ya. My post clearly says there not the same as the carbon fiber ones. Also I made no comment on the quality. Don't be a know-it-all. And I think we all know or could easily find out how much a gold bow-tie is. Which dosen't even matter 'cuz he says he throws 'em away anyway. Stop trying to be "Captain Save A Vendor".

 

The more i look at it on the website the more i want to replace both of them lol Now is the front one a direct replacement like bolt on? i know the rears are double sided tape?

 

yes the front one just bolts in with 2 bolts.

 

I want to replace mine too but I don't have that money lol

 

no, your post compared Mikes carbon fiber badges and pricing to 24designs, which makes heeap cheap cheap sheet plastic badges. i hate the fact that i bought one from them too, and i never will again.

a new GM Front bowtie at the cheapest i can find was $31. so mikes askign $50 for real carbon fiber + Labor + toolong cost to make the mold for the product itself. seems like a good price to me.

 

It isnt all about people not wanting to spend money.
Its about 80 bucks for a bowtie.

Will I end up buying one... yeah I will... they look sick.. but that isnt the point.

Not everyone can give out 80 bucks for a BOWTIE.

 

Exactly, nicely said


And don't you worry i know how to read. I know exactly what your post says. I'm not a know it all. I never said you couldn't find out what a bowtie cost, and yes he throws out the gold part but he still has to purchase that to get the chrome piece to mount the cf to. Im not trying to save a vendor i just know a good product when i see it.


I didn't mean it was about people not spending money. Yes i know its 80 bucks for a bowtie. And believe me i dont have a lot of money to just go spend it on whatever, but when its a good product im not afraid to spend the extra cash because i know its gonna last. Unlike what i spent on a badge from 24 designs. The cost reflected the quality. Wishing i never bought it.

 

I got something from 24 designs 8 months ago. Still holding up great

 

Does it count that i had 24designs 2.2 turbocharged badge for my spark plug cover on my sedan? haha it was a cheap peice of plastic but it worked fine. I wouldnt use the bowties, they look like crap since they dont curve with the front of the car.

 

Holy **** mike, those retros seem like a good price on your site too. maybe someday...

 

looks good to me and yes there cheap maybe when the 3m wears off i'll get the carbon one maybe even a hood to go with it!

i plan on getting a set of retros from you guys along with the custom pod set up






looks good to me and yes there cheap maybe when the 3m wears off i'll get the carbon one maybe even a hood to go with it!

 

Not digging them on the trunk, they look way to cheap.

 

I can take 10$ off website sale price of 79.99 if we can get 15 buyers. Unlikely but id throw it out there.

 

Ill post pics when mine arrives

 

Your ...back
