I have camaro fill ins for the back of my car that I got along time ago when you were still on ebay... I really have been thinking about doing a berger panel on my car so I would have to remove the letters and then restick them.. You have a good process for this?

I had to remove some of Matt's badges when i recently touched up the car's finish. Just carefully remove them as you would a OEM emblem (fishing wire could be helpful here), paint and later stick them on again using clear silicone adhesive or 3M emblem adhesive. I'm sure Matt will give you some hints on the matter too. Good luck!

You will need to clean up the area like new, and use the 3M double sided adhesive tape.
If you do not mind paying a few dollars we can accurately laser cut you some for the letters, and send it to you in the mail.
The fishing line trick will get them off, but there will be some cleanup that goof-off will take care of. Goof-off, is an adhesive remover.

Thanks, Roger

Yes we do,

How many do you want, and what color do you want the "Z" to be?
We also have the baby 69's that fit under the rear light.

Thanks, Roger

The Camaro vehicle letters and other vehicles as well seem to look better between the tailights. We thought this was the best look for it. I also like the 2010 bowtie, but the letters really do look much better.
We are looking for other ideas about how to incorporate the bowtie still.

We have our design approved by GM, and cannot simply change it. So, at least for now, the version we have is what we are allowed to sell.

Thanks. Roger

Matt,can you do the door sills in brushed stainless with "Trans am" etched in black now? The permenant ones btw

However, the sills are too long to get into our machine. So, due to size limitations we can't etch them. I think it's about the only piece we cannot etch. There are other options for placing letters on there.
Any new developments on this?

I can get them brushed, but they are too big for my machine to etch. If you feel up to it, you can get some vinyl made a few layers thick with what you want etched exposed (cutout) and lay it over the area you want etched, and then you can sandblast it.

I know it works, but I haven't done it and I really don't have the time or experience to sandblast.

Taking the Holiday off. We will have it finished on Monday. We have enough work where we could work everyday, but time must be spent with the family.

Hey Matt/Roger; took these the other night at the local meeting. As you can see it is not a OEM WS6 hood but the mirrors look good there IMO. No issues with them so far.

Nevermind...
