Pic's Deff. DON'T do them justice. Still tryin to get a good pic of the shine. This is just polished./rattle caned to see how they will look black. I think I'm gonna chrome plate a few and then powder coat the black area .

What do ya think?

I've never seen any machined emblems that I've really liked so far - but those look fantastic!!
Please be sure to shoot me an email should you considers producing these for sale! I'd prefer them polished just like that, and the black part powder coated.

Great job bud!

Wow!! That looks great! I can't wait to see the nose emblem. Do you plan on marketing these? I would also love a 25th anniv. Z28 dash emblem. I'm also hunting for a 5.7 Tuned Port Injection emblem. I'm definately interested in buying a set if your selling them.

Oh wow if you did something with the decklid 25th emblem thatd be something... i was talking more about the emblem on the dash. It sure is hard to find a mint rear decklid emblem and i have 4, they are all not mint.

Would you be making something of just a stock repro or would it be comparable to the other stainless emblems?

We dont have to talk about prices here since we know that will get this thread closed, but it really is great to see people making new aftermarket stuff for our cars. Keep up the good work, and i hope to do business with you soon.

I have a mint one but would consider something along this line to match the chrome rockers.

Just keeps getting better!
Im really looking forward to see what the nose emblem will look like.
These to me are what I call in the "Chip Foose-spirit" - meaning they look like what they should've done in the first place!

So, just say when!

thanks KEN.

I'll work on a dash one down the road. I really want to knock these out and see how a set looks on a car. Then start on some RS ones to see how they look.

Stay tuned for a nose pic. come friday ish.

Same here! Those don't look like they'd catch a wash mit or tear up the pads for my porter cable. That's the only thing stopping to not using the metal emblems I bought. I'd like to get factory emblems, but GM doesn't make them any more and last time a full NOS set popped up on e-bay they sold for $230.

The Tuned Port injection 5.7 will come down the road. I don't think Id be able to make it as 3d lookig as these and keep it at a cost where it wuld sale. If have to use a 1/6th bit and Im gonna guess it would take 40-45min just for that bage at the speed it would have to run. I could do a billet one and do a ball milled looking one. but then it wouldnt match these ones.

Originally Posted by Demon355

Ive got to find one around here I can go off of 1st. The 2nd thing with the Dash one is Id like to find a Happy medium where I could just do 1 Z28 one rather then every one that was diff. and one RS one, etc.

what would be nice is if I could scale down one of these Z28 ones and make it look good on the dash also.

Just tryin to keep it simple so I can keep the price within reason for people who want a set.
