Wanted 5 or more for RS Alumn. Billett Emblems

SUBJECT:
6061 T6 Alum. CNC Machined RS EMBLEMS.


Ok so TPI383 made some custom CNC'd Z28 emblems for his car and for 2-3 other members here....
This is a pic of em.



He can also make a custom CNC'd Nose emblem as key chains..
http://www.cecoatings.com/images/fs/KeyChains/




I Really want a set of these Emblems but I want em in RS version. If I can get about 5 or more People Commited and willing to make a deposit.(in other words No tire kickers/window shopping) He can/will make a run of RS ones for us. He is doing a 1 off set of SS ones for a member here now.

They will be made of 6061 T6 Aluminum

They will be avaliable in four different formats: natural finish, polished, or polished with painted recesses.

Here are some example of some of the Z28 ones.

http://www.cecoatings.com/rocky

Price, if enough people are interested, would be $225 shipped to your door. (yes he will ship to canada or anywhere. One of the Z28 sets went to NORWAY)

Please post here or PM me if you are interested in purchasing a a set.

This will be to gauge and show interest so we can get some made. This will be for RS only at this time.

I'm sure we can get something made up for people with birds,GTA,IROC's etc if you can round up the same amount of people.!!

Thanks! And lets get the ball on the roll so we can get some of these before the end of the month.__________________

Let see Im not charging a $150 setup fee for the design of the RS file.
It takes 23min a side and 28 for a rear . 5min on the nose emblem.

56min @ $3/min. $168bucks.
Polishing Them.
Powder Coating or Painting them.
Bubble Wraping them.
Padded Envelope
1st Class Priority Mail and Insured for $300
Shipped anywhere in the world. is included in my price.

$225 is a decent deal. Look at the price of Stock emblems if you can find em.
Ive seen Z28 and RS stock silver and red sides going for $76each So Im in the ballpark for a stock plastic emblem. for something that is A TON nicer and custom.

Re: Wanted 5 or more for RS Alumn. Billett Emblems

I wasn't bashing that fact that your making $168/hour making these emblems. Your providing a custom service and your product is very nice. I was just stating that it was too expensive for me. Ruth's Chris steak house is suppose to be one of the nicest steak houses in the country. As a result they are very pricey. Thus, too expensive for me. Just becuase I state that doesn't mean I'm trashing their business. If I had the money, I would buy a set of your emblems and then go have a steak at Ruth's Chris.

well not quite 168/hr. as I said no desihn fee of $150
Material cost is a fraction of the price but still there. Running a few samples 1st before the finial production piece hits the customers hand..

BTW, ya RUTH CHRIS does have awesome steak.But Theres a local steak house by me that has awesome Ostrich!
