That is a great price! Is that price for just the bowtie and we stick it on? How much if I have you glue it on? When I send you the emblems for the molds you will have the chrome pieces so to me it makes sense to have you do it.

I will pick the new emblems up for you this week and ship them to you if you think we are ready to start production.

Lets get some input from a few other people on the list first. If u guys wanna PM around to get faster responses that's fine.

I can glue it on for u . Since ur gettin the bow ties ill do it for free. Anyone else would have to send theirs in and ill charge an extra 10 to do it

Sounds good. Any time estimate?

How is the gold part taken off?

Will the CF emblem have a 3M sticker backing or glue?

Thanks for your time and effort.

Won't start production for some time yet. Stil need to obtain the emblems then do a mold and a few test pieces. Yea I could do the red carbon if u want but its gonna b a lot more. Unless ur supplying the carbon. Cuz I have to buy whole rolls of it

Sounds good! I will PM you when I have the emblems and we can go from there. I will pay to ship them to you. Really appreciate you doing that for me, thanks!

Looks like everyone is pretty excited about these!

Hey Melon, what if you make the whole emblem carbon fiber? Like, no chrome trim. Would you be able to do that? And I mean the rear one btw.

Those would be just like the ones flinthicium was making. They are very good pieces for $20 each. They arent PERFECTLY moulded, but very very close. They are not wrapped pieces but moulds.

I could. But that would require doing another mold. And in doing that it would drive price of that style emblem up. I would b willing to do it but there would need to b an interest in it. Otherwise the 1 or 2 that wanted it would pay an arm and a leg

Gotcha. Well it's not for me, I got one of the originals, but my buddy has been wanting one for awhile. Hopefully more people go for the no chrome look. Otherwise he could just get the gold part done, and then not put it on the chrome trim.

If he wants to get rid of chrome trim he could always paint it black. Smaller area like that would probly match somewhat decent to the carbon

true... plus making a non carbon mold also would require you to fab up a mounting system.
