Ok. Some people were asking me about these earlier...Havnt had much time...

But. Heres a basic idea of what they will be like on our cars.
I showed a pic of a finished one from a cobalt. Im gonna make this out of 1/8 aluminum or something prolly.

The outline is just the stock shape. The wording can be anything. I dont know yet what Im gonna make mine to, but Ill try to get it within the next week. I will post pics for sure when its done.

What ya guys think though?
What all would you like to see?

That would be cool, how will you be cutting them? Id like to know how clean they will come out.

I could do the eagle logo...When they come time to sell Ill hopefully have enough posts to put it in the right section.....

Stupid 50 post rule......Maybe Ill whore it up on this one.

But ya. It will be water-jetted out. Comes out very clean. Really nice. Ill post a pic of the one I made for my friends Cobalt a lil later.
I have to take it somewhere for that, which is why it would be nice to get a few people together. Cause the price I get it for drops significantly...Those details can be worked out later though.

I have had a few requests for eclipses cut outs, which Ill be messing with tomarrow... Can try some logos too, I like that idea.


We got a new machine here too, so hopefully soon I can do imprints. NOt full cut outs, but like an engraving. Ill keep ya posted.

This is not a one time thing where you made one and are selling it personally. This sounds like a business that you have and if that is the case you are breaking rules by advertising these parts or fishing for customers. I would be very careful from this point on in what you post. You are on thin ice that is cracking quickly.

I acnt sell em...Not allowed in classifieds...Which is where I will post it.

Im not fishing for anything...thats what ebay is for.
I merely want to know if people here like it, and if so, what they would like to see....Then I can post those ideas and get the feedback.

Once I start making them, Ill repost in the appropriate section.
I could put this in parts talk if you want, I dont care.......
Besides, How can I advertise this when theres no product to advertise? Nothing has been made. Cant sell what I dont have.
Sorry for coming close to the rules here, but I just want you to realize, Im not selling them here. Just want feedback.
Thanks.

---oh yea...Its not a business. I just use the resources I have at work to make myself stuff for my car, and with things like this, Im only tryin to help the community out by sharing what I have. Even the few things I have sold, I dont make much money off of. I sell it for what I paid. If you would like to know more or ask me something, just shoot a pm, Ill be happy to talk.

The eagle logo will take me a bit longer...But I really like that idea.

If the Eagle one looks good then I think Im gonna use that for my car...I havnt decided yet...
Let me know any more idea, I would like to make mine, but still havnt decided what to go with yet, and your ideas definatly help me out. I appreciate it.
