As far as the area above ...and for head plates for that matter, are you able to water-jet out the area we'd like, or would it just be engraving/etching put on there?

Thanks!

Thanks![/QUOTE]

I need to measure mine. My first thoughts are an etched stainless piece to fit into the recession.

Thanks, Roger

The emblempros.com True ZR1 style LS emblems. These are highly customizeable. We have 2 different styles - Mirror Stainless Face, and Plastic Face with brushed metal finish. This is one of our hybrid emblems that uses different materials to give the emblem an ultra-custom look, and also a lot of "flavor".

So there are no questions about the material, I offer one style with a real metal face. It is a real mirror stainless face. I won't try to sell plastic as metal, but I do offer both versions. If you don't want real metal, and the plastic version is fine with you, I'm looking out for you too.

First off, let me state what this is. The "LS#" are all laser cut from the stainless or plastic face. Underneath is a high gloss piece of black acrylic so your "LS" has a deep shine, and is recessed from the face - not simply etched. The 1,2,3,7, etc are all raised mirror acrylic inserts that will be available in a color of your choice and reflect just as good as a mirror themselves. The logo script, ie "Trans Am' is etched into both the plastic, and stainless face. Both etches are done in black, so the name does stand out. We can also put any wording of your choice on top instead of the name of a car for those of you who have done LS swaps into different vehicles, or those who want to put engine info such as HP ratings.

Let me lay down the tentative pricing after the licensing is finalized.

Mirror Stainless True ZR1 style emblem - $44.99
Composite Plastic True ZR1 style emblem - $34.99

For comparison reasons, here is an actual GM ZR1 emblem. Be sure to compare ours to notice all the design similarities:



Here are the pics (not renders) of emblempros.com's Mirror Stainless True ZR1 style emblems:









Here is a pic of emblempros.com's Composite Plastic True ZR1 style emblems:



Here is a pic of a few with regular plastic inserts - not mirror acrylic:



I expect these to be a really hot item. They look awesome in person!
Please let me know the minute these become available.....

Battery covers coming Soon!!!!!

Yep, not a problem. If you want it without logos, we can invoice it to you now and make it when you pay.

And another little something, something...

Gen 5 Camaro SS/RS ZR1 style emblem. These will also be available in an L99 setup for the automatic cars. We are going to be anticipating the launch of these cars and have a line-up ready to go:











This emblem will find its home on an Inferno Orange Metallic car pretty soon.
