Yes I do vacuum bag the caps and will do same with these. Vacuum bag from a mold gives a precise consistent shape. Then trim by hand for touch ups. To do entire piece by hand leaves too much took for error IMO

 

If this version if going to keep the chrome border, I'd like a front one.

 

Right! that is exactly what I was thinking.

I am going to check with the dealer tomorrow and see what my cost on these emblems are and I if they are cheap I might be able to help everyone that wants these out. Will have to see what my buddy there says hopefully he won't have a limit on the amount I can get from them.

 

I'm down for a front pending price.

I'd prefer chrome border.

 

Do here's wut I'm thinking I would do. Obtain a set. Do the first set. Then the buyer of that set would send me theirs and I would ship the done set to them and then have their old ones to do for next person in line. How does that sound to u guys?

 

That sounds like it make perfect sense to me to keep turn around quick and keep cost down. Not sure what everyone else thinks? Only problem would be is if some of the others don't have their badges?

The first set I can get brand new so you can make the mold with very few imperfections.

 

What are you thinking on price and turn around for these? I want to do it but don't want to drive around for a long time missing a bow tie lol

 

Well I would have one done before having urs sent to me. So once I received urs, I would send out the finished one. Then make the new one and ship put to next customer when it was complete and I had theirs. These shouldn't take long to turn around at all. Especially if I get this new job it will give me more time in garage

Fear that sounds perfect!

 

Sounds like a done deal to me as long as price is reasonable, which I'm sure it will be judging from the older version.

 

would pics of the chrome border help at all?

 

It may help me get some what of an idea on how the 2 attach but wouldn't really help much with figuring price

 

As soon as we get the price and everyone agrees on it, along with any other details worked out. Let me know so I can make sure I have these badges to send to you (Melon).

Depending on price I may also want a rear also to go with the 2 fronts.

I should hopefully have plenty of time later this afternoon to check price/availability of these emblems and pick them up if they are instock since my work schedule got switched to graveyard.

 

Let me know about the emblems and how much they r. I may just buy them

 

interested pending price

Good thing im at the top of the list

 

That looks pretty sweet. I may have to get buy one off of you.

 

should i add you to the list? front, rear,both?

 

I would be interested depending on the price and turn around it would take to get the emblems... front and rear.

 

Price is gonna depend on wut I can get the emblems for

 

We used to sell these, But the guy I had contact with stopped responding to my emails. I had about 10 pending orders before we had to drop it from our lineup

 

Ok I called my buddy at Fox/Autonation Chevrolet of Laurel today and he quoted me:

$16.06 excluding tax for the Front
$33.65 excluding tax for the Rear

Tried to see if the other dealer closer to me could give them to me cheaper but they told me it would be

$21.42 Front
$44.87 Rear

But will give them to me for same price as Fox

I looked around online crateenginedepot.com has the Front for $15.19 but not the Rear.

The best price I found for the Rear was around $20 on ebay without the box. With the box was $40 because the fancy, GM box made of thin cardboard cost $20 dollars on its own?! lol Better get a wall mount display and put the empty box in it may be worth more in the future!

 

So like 50 for the pair from ur guy?

 

Yeah, it comes out to be about 53 dollars a pair with tax.

 

clear coating the cf emblems correct?

 

Yea I always clear coat. Emblems a bit more than o was expecting so we will c on price. Give me a few days to discuss with my buddy and ill get back to everyone
