Default Pony Embem Cover - Cheap Mod - Great Vendor

I wanted a skeleton emblem for my car but just couldn't bring myself to pay $180

I found this guy (thanks to this forum) and called him. He said he could do it, it would be hand painted and it covers not replaces the chrome pony.

I figured I'd take a chance.

It arrived today. Plastic cover (as advertised) painted gloss black with a white pony skeleton with a few coats of clear. Paint and art work is GREAT.

It uses 3M tape and went on pretty secure in like 3 minutes. Changed the whole attitude of the front end IMO.

Guy can do almost anything and has many designs.

I'm a happy camper.

www.emblemcovers.com

Best part. It was $12.99 shipped. Yes $12.99!

Only have night pic's. If anyone wants some daytime shots just say so and I'll get some up tomorrow.

Before:


After: (Sorry for night time shots)

He has body color...I considered doing white, he has flames, flags, waves and all sorts of things. If you email him and tell him what your thinking he will tell you if he can do it and what it will cost. Mine was the standard fee and he did mine to order.

I'm thinking a Torch Red (Colorado Red in PPG-speak on his site) since I'm going with the black bumper to bumper w/pins stripe... and on a suggestion, may be painting my GT emblem on the trunk red...
