No thanks. I don't like the idea of "stacking" the plates. Maybe with your guy's business getting ready to explode,you'll get a bigger machine.

That's cool, but we do it all the time.
We make the shrouds for 2004, and 2005 GTO, Corvettes, Mustangs, Trans ams, and Camaros. We do this when customers want the wrinkled up factory labels replaced, with stainless ones we have etched. Many times they are placed on the shrouds. On some of these cars I just mentioned, that's where the labels are, and the owners want them in the same place.
Everyone has a preference for one thing or another. Even though we try to make customers feel satisfied, it is not possible for anyone, to do everything, for everybody.
We are in fact going to have to buy another machine. Whether it will be bigger or not I do not know at this time. We already know that the one machine we have is not going to keep up with orders. We are putting off the purchase until it is mandatory. I will let you know if we get a bigger machine.

Thanks, Matt

Wow, sorry about last night, guys. I had to run to the library and I completely forgot about posting an item. So, I'll post one this morning, and one tonight.

Here is our Stainless WS7 emblem. We will also have WS6 and WS9 in the same style. Color selection is up to the customer, and we will also offer custom text into the base. We have improved these slightly over our previous design.

we can do black on black on black on black on black, and then you can take them and have them painted; you guessed it... black.

Why you would ask this is beyond me.

I'll make you a WS.867-5309 with "Jenny" etched into the base if you want it. The numbers don't matter to me if you're paying.

Can you make plates for the top of an LT1 throttle body? I mean a replacement, not just a stick on piece.

Here are some new CAMARO fill-ins I have made, and as far as I know, they're the only ones that exist. I have 2 styles shown here.

1 - Stainless Steel with the center body etched in black. These have a mirror-reflective quality around the edges - these will look awesome in your guys' Berger panels

2 - Multi-layer Composite plastic with a red surface and black under-layer. The red is etched away in the center to expose the black. The end result is a red outline and black center. These can be done with several different color combinations if you want something different.

The pricing may be an additional $10-$15 due to machine time.

Do you mean solid black plastic, or the etched stainless ones shown?

The solid black plastic fills will be a base $30 + etching time (between $10-$15 have to figure it out)

The etched stainless ones shown will be $35 + etching time (same cost as above added)

Thanks for the reply matt. Your guy's merchandise is top shelf. I plan on buying somethings from you when available. Please let me know on the machine when and if you get it.
