Projects Grille badges

Hi guys, I’m looking to have a few custom grille badges made and striking out with no luck. Anybody have any insight on where I could get this done? Thanks in advance!

It would be helpful if you could post a couple examples of what you have in mind.... 'grille badges' could cover a lot of ground. There are a ton of super talented people on here that may be better able to offer advice/sources if they knew what your expectations are.

 

As '28 points out you need to get a little more specific. Grill badges come in cast metals, (brass, aluminum etc.), stampings, hand painted, vitreous glass, etc. The more you order, the less per piece they cost. What exactly are you looking for and how many do you need?

 

You could photoetch some brass or aluminum then apply some enamel, especially if it's for a one off.

 

Look online there are several manufacturers for them ,made to order using your design just for you, from cheap crap to ones for your Rolls-Royce.

Or a good-reputation hobbyist, maybe from Etsy, if you can't find one sorta-local? IDK...

Paul (wex65) posted this on the Gentlemans Coupe build, as I remember a started with a '32 Ford Bob Drake emblem and sandblasted it and then had it etched by a engraver. HRP

 

I made this one out of a lapel pin and commonly found shop ingredients
