I am only getting delivered two right now cause they made a mistake on one of them, so I will install the first two on my hood (which IMO will look amazing) and wait to install the last one on my trunk lid. I hope I get them tomorrow.

Oops sorry I didn't notice your last weekend. I designed it in this 3D modeling and animation program called Maya.

Yeah I emailed them way before I even found BilletBadges. I asked them if it was possible to get a few custom badges made, but if they could not, would they have any suggestions to who can... yeah I never heard back from them, it sounds like they only cater to bigger companies looking for a bulk buy... $685 per badge? Yeah right! I paid around 1/6th of that for mine.

Apparently they're doing plastic ones now. I was quoted $245 for a badge like the logo in my signature. Which I find to be a bit high for plastic.

Yeah thats pretty ridiculous. Contact BilletBages, they should quote you waay less than that for something that is not plastic.

Ok so I just got the emblems in the mail and they looks awesome! But I am having second thoughts about putting them on the sides of my hood scoop... Should I take the "GT" off the fenders and put them there? cause that might look pretty sweet. I need opinions please!
