Default i need some emblems made....

i'm wanting to put something 'unique' on my car for the new setup, something that would look good on the side of the Sunoco cowl. i'm thinking i want something like this, but without the flags:



i want it to be a "real" emblem, not a vinyl, and not some sticker with a thick enamel/polymer on top of it...know what i mean? i'm almost thinking i'd like the "LS X" letters only, without the black backing (or flags). i want it to look factory though...any ideas?

Copy & paste the properties & you can see it.
Try emblempros.com (dragonz28 here on the site.)
Or go over to LS1 dot com & look up ThirdShiftStudios.
He might be able to help ya.

Those pics above are from thirdshiftstudios.

I think you would have better luck hitting up emblempros (sponsor on here, pm Dragonz28). They do AMAZING work. Mirror finished, laser cut stainless steel.

I have looked at 3rdshiftstudios but have you looked around the site? The car emblems is like a side gig to some other random *** stuff they do. They are nice looking on the site but I am yet to see any example of their emblems actually on a car.

So, for that price it is to risky for me. Dragonz28 has done a lotta quality work and would stand by anything they make for ya. Whereas the 3rdshift stuff might be difficult to get a refund on ya know? I might be wrong but thats just how I'd do it.

Emblem Pro's for sure. They did my Supercharged emblems in the ram air font, brushed stainless steel and raised, they came out PERFECT.

You need to talk to Xtinctz28, he just had LSX badges made from emblempros.

I also have custom emblems made from emblempros on my sunoco:

Hey Photochop, did you try giving them a call?

A lot of times sponsors on here will get about 100 PMs a day asking about custom stuff that will likely never be more than a pipe dream for people asking them about it. I think if you called them you'd be happy

I had these made by DragonZ28/Emblem Pros: (all polished stainless steel with a red inlay for the "X") They do AMAZING work!

To my knowledge they will not make them again until some sort of licensing agreement is reached. I think there might have been an LTX emblem made after I had mine done, but I have not seen any other "LSX" emblems like these.

those are pretty damn close to what i'm after. my only issue is they don't really look OEM. i have access to a laser and all the #8 polish stainless 12ga-20ga i want, if i REALLY wanted them, i *could* make them myself, but it'd be a lot of effort and i'm not sure that's exactly what i want.

your emblems look killer, and you put them exactly where/how i want to put mine. the "X" is perfect, but the "LS" isn't exactly what i want. if they could be cut with a radiused edge, so they were all smooth and round with no points or abrupt edges, that might be what i'm after...

just contact dragonz28 im sure he can have them made "smooth"

but dont ask for the "lsx badges" ask for a "l,x,and s emblems" haha - it should work // just like how you can get the c,a,m,a,r, and o emblems online



Quick Reply: i need some emblems made....
