OSV and custom Badging
Hey guys, I'm gauging interest for the moment but i am probably going to go into a rather small scale production of OSV alero badges hoping some of you that have participated in the OSV kit group buy may be interested... As for the rest of you... i am more than willing to work with you for any other ideas on customized badging... The badges i will be making (as far as my plan goes for now) will look like the design seen below... i will post a picture of the actual product hopefully by the end of the week... the design will be printed on metalized polyester so the background will be chrome.... i will then be covering (doming) them with a high strength flexible epoxy. gives them a 3 dimensional (about 1/8th inch deep) highly durable finish. like i said... i will post a final product picture and i still have to work out pricing... these can be customized relatively easy... from (close to) car color matching to completely different layouts... Feedback is welcome.

well here's round one... the largest one (asv alero) depicted is approx. 4.25 inches long... the smaller ones are about 2.75 inches long... i also have a few that are just OSV... without the alero part below it... I will try to put together a nicer photo presentation when they are cured... about the olds symbols... the larger one is 3.25"... smaller being 2.25"... These are kinda sweet becasue during the day they look normal but (as the flash on my camera illustrates) the black is also reflective...
lemme know what you think...
Edit... heres the OSV stickers by them selves.... the black looking part is CHrome... doesn't come across very well in pictures... especially at night...

Wow those look pretty cool. How much work is it for you to make these. Im just wondering because it would be cool if you could make a black pontiac arrowhead (sorry I know this is an Olds site) with the doming on it.

I'd be more than happy to... it would have to wait untill I dome another set of something as the doming material isn't cheap and you have to use it all once you open it... gimme specs on how big, anything special about it... and i'll tell you what it'll cost ya.

Oh... I'll also mention that I also do 23K gold leaf graphics... they are however... expensive... but that would be a sweet touch on a clean kitted car...

Looks good but if the OSV was in diff. font. If I sticked that on my car it would be to obivious that Im trying to make my car something its not. Try to make it look like it would come out the factory and it would go with the car.

I'll make some on the next run that are closer to "stock" for the rest that want an updated style... that's cool too.
