Thread: Gentlemen....behold!

Ahem.

Hi Colton,

Thanks for the email.

Unfortunately, we cannot cut anything other than vinyl, so we wouldn’t be able to make these from the aluminum or plastic. Depending on the design though and how you want it to look, we may be able to do something with our dome or collaborate efforts with another manufacturer to make something work.

Attached is a G8 emblem we made using three colors of vinyl with the dome on top.

If you think this is something that can be done with vinyl, please let me know and we’ll be glad to look into it.

Just as I suspected. All they do is vinyl, and they can't make this. Oh well.

can we see the pic they sent you?

Doesn't even come close to what I'm looking for.

rotfl.oh well, thought it would end up like this.

I'm still working with Reflective Concepts because they might be able to find a manufacturer to work with them, which would mean the actual body of the dart would be made somewhere else, and they would apply the colored parts of the decal. This would allow us (and them) to order a very large quantity, and wait until orders are placed to apply the color to them, making us only temporarily reliant on the manufacturer. I really want to see this come to fruition, even if it means I have to bust out the CAD software and make a model for injection molding or CNC machining.

Please do continue to pursue this. These look great. I'd love to see one in gold that matches my car.

im with Lsick7, gold please

Well, Reflective Concepts ended up pointing me over to Third Shift Studios where I originally asked for a price on a Grand Prix G8 concept dart. The price for one of those is $75 btw. Not sure if this is gonna happen unless I make them myself...

Does anyone have a 3D printer?

tell them, if they can do a group buy for 50 bucks we might come up with some people. just saying.

If we can get $1300 in donations I'll buy a 3d printer and give them away for free

I got a concept dart for 35



Its polished black stainless with a flat black insert with the center cut out. Since I got a g8 concept bumper a g8 dart would go good with it

Android Fire

I want that one... nao!

Make me one.... nao!

If you can get a group buy for around $50ish I'm game.

Yeah, I'd definitely still be interested in this as well. Orange center yum yum yum.
