Default Front Pony Emblem Cover, check this out

I bought this emblem cover from a guy on eBay that was just really great to deal with. I wanted to show it to you guys and give him props. He custom painted it to my specifications and the whole thing cost me $12.99 shipped! I would imagine he can paint it any way you want. I wanted the flames to match my car. The auction says: "NOTE: DO YOU HAVE AN IDEA OF YOUR OWN FOR A PONY EMBLEM COVER DESIGN? EMAIL ME FROM YOUR EMAIL ADDRESS TO: jimnkathye@msn.com WITH A DESCRIPTION OR GRAPHIC ATTACHMENT AND I WILL LET YOU KNOW IF I CAN MAKE IT AND WILL EVEN SEND YOU A PICTURE OF WHAT IT WILL LOOK LIKE!"

The cover is some sort of fairly thin molded plastic that fits perfectly and attaches with 2-way tape. He even e-mailed me a mockup of what it would look like when I requested a custom paint job before I even completed the auction/payment. Then when he was finished with it, he emailed me a picture of the real thing asking if it was acceptable to me before he shipped it out. Awesome!

My car is all gray/black themed with ghost flames on the sides and hood, so this works perfectly.

His eBay name is: jimnkathye

The paint job is really nice, ignore my fingerprints!

That looks really good man, and it matches the stripes on your car perfectly. Cool mod

Yeah its pretty thin, but I don't see why it wouldn't hold up. The paint job is good. For $13 shipped and custom painted, its hard to go wrong regardless. I just wanted to give the guy a little free advertisement, because its these independent crafters that make eBay really great IMO.

I had one of those before I decided to the Bullitt Grille direction ... he does some great work and very easy to deal with. Good seller all around and not a bad product -- especially for the price!

lol......sorry.....I tend to get carried away with my love for pink sometimes!

I like subtle little accents on my car that keep others aware it is a female's car.
