AWeb80 Posted January 16, 2006 Report Share Posted January 16, 2006 Mine are all faded and yellow....I'm going to have some new ones lasered out of aluminum or steel and also put a design in them and then have them Powdercoated a dark grey color. What design should I put in them.....and how should I make it look? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supreme Cutlass Posted January 16, 2006 Report Share Posted January 16, 2006 A pontiac symbol perhaps? I'd say keep it subtle Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

THe_DeTAiL3R Posted January 16, 2006 Report Share Posted January 16, 2006 I can't wait to see!!! Mine look like new still though, and I'm tinting the windows dark so you won't be able to see from the outside. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeremy Posted January 17, 2006 Report Share Posted January 17, 2006 moved to audio section I would got with little pontiac arrowheads if you can make them look good... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AWeb80 Posted January 17, 2006 Author Report Share Posted January 17, 2006 Well, right now i'm thinking of PONTIAC curved around the top and then haveing a solid peice of steel in the middle and having the emblem laser engraved into it. I can get the "star" in the middle of the emblem to be there, unless i leave connecting lines going to it that are super thing.... i'll have some drawings up in 2 wks probably.....not in a hurry to do them yet.

jeremy Posted January 17, 2006 Report Share Posted January 17, 2006 based on the things you have came up with before, I am sure that these will turn out great.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ExZion Posted January 17, 2006 Report Share Posted January 17, 2006 i made custom ones with plastic they look nice but aluminumn will be sweet!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supreme Cutlass Posted January 17, 2006 Report Share Posted January 17, 2006 any concepts you're looking at? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1990lumina Posted January 17, 2006 Report Share Posted January 17, 2006 Hmm, I'd say if you make them, make sure it isn't shiny or it might reflect into the back window causing glare....might want to keep that in mind, or you might not care, just thought I'd mention. But yeah that sounds awesome, and Jeremey is right, everything you've made so far turns out great Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Euro Posted January 17, 2006 Report Share Posted January 17, 2006 maybe have them with just the letters GP out of the 97+ GTP script but again...it'll look good whatever it is!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AWeb80 Posted January 18, 2006 Author Report Share Posted January 18, 2006 Here is a sad interpretation of what my idea is so far...... Everything in GREY will be cut out.... ...and if ya read into the design....the three stripes are to signify the B4U lines Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GOT2B GM Posted January 19, 2006 Report Share Posted January 19, 2006 Just a question, how are you going to do the letters with holes in them ( like P, O, A, R, D) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slick Posted January 19, 2006 Report Share Posted January 19, 2006 Probably leave small slots going to the centers to hold them in place. Or atleast thats what I would do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I tried to draw it and its hard to get it right because it's basically an oval that has been squared off.... This is what a CMM is Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SigEpCutlass Posted January 19, 2006 Report Share Posted January 19, 2006 based on the things you have came up with before, I am sure that these will turn out great.... Seriously Adam! You're good with this type of stuff. I'm sure whatever you come up with for a design will look awesome. Btw...your RSTB owns. Night and day even with the RSM one up front before. Thanks for designing awesome stuff...back to subject. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
turby Posted January 24, 2006 Report Share Posted January 24, 2006 I use a CMM every night at work. We have one like the one you posted and a smaller one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AWeb80 Posted January 24, 2006 Author Report Share Posted January 24, 2006 I use a CMM every night at work. We have one like the one you posted and a smaller one. Well, the one we have is a 4'x8'...and is fully automatic....you type in the parameters of the part and it will zero its self out and check the part on its own.....pretty cool. The little probe on the end of ours is ~$10K...its a progressive type..... i'm not that knowledgible about it...but its cool. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
