Default New Custom Nose Emblem

Here is my new custom nose emblem I designed and had made. I had it made by a non-sponsor since Emblem Pros couldn't do it.





Let me know what you guys think. I am really happy with how it turned out and I haven't seen another like it.

Why wouldn't EmblemPros make it if you don't mind me asking? None the less though, it looks real good, I like it.

They said they couldn't see any way how to make it

We have no problem with carbon fiber at all.













As you can see, we could have made that out of any number of different materials, we just don't make decals. Never will.

It is probable we just did not completely understand what your request was? I am not sure.

Thanks, Roger

This is the picture I sent to you guys months back and you said you couldn't do it.


I checked my emails for the conversation but apparently I deleted it. I have got all my emblems and stuff from you in the past so you guys saying you weren't going to be able to make it was the only reason I looked elsewhere.

Sorry,

I do not have an answer. I am the only person who does the "Q & A"
I also talk to, or email with about 30 people a day. If I said no, it was my mistake for doing so.
I honestly just do not remember. If we would have made it it would have been Silver Mirror or Black Onyx Stainless, with 100% real carbon fiber insets. Or hydrogaphic work.
But you did get it done.

Happy Thanksgiving.

Roger

What he has: Is a sticker with a urethane process called doming.
Liquid urethane is squirted on top, and allowed to flow to the edges. The surface tension of the urethane causes it to not flow over the edges, unless to much is placed. Then it is allowed to cure.
It's a simple process but it involves making a sticker, which we do not do here.

Can we make one as an emblem? sure. If you want one excatly as his is, then you should go the same route he did.
I really do not want to jump on his thread. So you can PM me if you have any questions about what we do. My only intention here was to let you guys know that we can indeed do it.

Thanks, Roger

I preferred mine the way the stock one was. Don't think I would have been as happy with an actual emblem, just too thick for my taste for front nose emblems.

I'll send a PM with the company I used. The car just sits in the garage now that I moved. Probably drove it less than 300 miles since June . Some day I'll take it out and get nice new pics with the new touches I've added.
