If you're ready to start and you want to go with the "send yours in" method I have no problem taking my front off and sending it right now.

Noooooo. I'm on the fence. It's a cool idea but I don't have the leisure to be able to spend $100 on an emblem

Guessing we still have not figured out a price yet or did i miss that ^ there somewhere? As soon as we figure out a plan and know we are ready to start the production. I can send the new emblems to Melon to make the molds with so they have as few imperfections as possible.

Maybe it wont be that much but if he supplies the emblems rather than the send yours in it could be a bit higher than expected.
When you consider the amount of time spent, materials needed, shipping costs to make these and the overall quality you will receive in all fairness 100 to 150 would be acceptable for both IMO. Most places I looked at to get these custom made were wanting 200+. Melon may only make a 10 dollar prophet on each order which is why a lot of the guys on the forums stopped making them.

I know he is not sure what to say about the price yet because he cannot make these and have it take money from his pocket but he also wants to make it affordable for us. If you read the past forums of individuals that made these there were people complaining that owners of cobalt's are too cheap and so on. That may have been about 45 dollars for one!? I know realistically it seems like a lot but when you think about all the things you spend money on every week or month (gas, food, restaurants, bills, mortgage, Rent, Vehicle and Home Repairs ect.) then ask yourself am I going to miss 100 or 150 dollars this one time around?

Just a little food for thought.

Very true. I'm trying to keep it as affordable for everyone as possible without selling myself short. Also if I get mold made I can always just send the emblem if u guys wanted to detach the yellow piece and attach the carbon piece yourselves
