Title: New Badges/overlays
Post by: Black Pheonix on September 07, 2003, 07:14:17 PM
Is there any place to get new badges, I know they are discountinued. Actually, I'm more interested in some overlays for my badges, Eclispe was working on that, but i haven't heard from him in awhile. Anybody know where he is or have overlays?

You know what I would LOVE to see and probably give quite a bit for?  TGP badges that follow the GTP look.  It would confuse the non-GP savvy people and make them want to race us.  Sorry I can't help you on the thread, but does anyone know of a GTP badge that someone could carefully separate the letters and re-arrange them to read TGP?  That would be easiest (I did a set of badges for my 66 C-20 like that.  I took Chevy 2500 badge and removed the "2" so now it has the Chebby emblem and 500 (because I am useing a Caddy 500 engine.))  8)

I just wish I could find someone to re-finish the badges I have. All they need is a good paint job where the gold has worn off.  :cry:

I think overlays is a sweet idea for our cars.  I've never seen them before so I just sent an email to Reflective Concepts (//www.reflectiveconcepts.com), they are the people that make them for the current Grand Prix's, and asked them if they might be able to do some custom work for us.  Is anyone else out there interested in this?  They do some great work.  I'm currently using their products on my GTP and they look fantastic.  I've had them on for over a year and a half and they look as good as the day I put them on.  As soon as I hear back from them I'll post to let everyone know.

if you want to make a badge that says TGP, buy the new GTP badges from the 04 GP from ebay or a dealer.  They look to be seperate letters.

I'm not sure what Black Pheonix was thinking when he wrote this but I was thinking of the side badges that say TURBO with Grand Prix under that.  I wan't really looking for one that said TGP, although that would be kinda cool as well.

I was more looking into an the idea that 4PASNU suggested. Let me know what they think of making overlays for our cars. I want it to look original, like buying a new badge. They will problay want to make both black and red badges, but i think that black probaly fades more, mine are really faded. Its almost gray, and the gold seems worn off. Anyways let me know 4PASNU,
                      Thanks,
