No offense but your end result is nowhere near the same... We wanted a miniature emblem and Brent accomplished this very well.

He gave it depth by starting on a black piece and then adding the color on top. Our's also looks like a real metallic emblem in person because the numbers are chrome and shiny .

i actually think it looks better without the overlays. i just did my bezel this weekend and i wanted to do the z-28 emblem also but i didnt see them on frankers site. i installed it without removing the bottom trim piece, i was also able to seperate the lens/bezel from the cluster without having to remove the the whole assembly as one piece, it makes it so much easier that way. it looks really good i almost like it better than my berger panel because when i drive my car i can actually see it while im driving.

I just ordered my T/A bezel from WS6store and SS decal from Brent. I've been wanting to do this for a while but this post helped me pull the trigger. Thanks ya'll

mine is printed on brushed aluminum.
I was making the gauge decals long before he was. I was harassed about selling them because they were not "licensed by GM", well I don't think his are either.

I've had many happy customers over the years
