Saucemaxx Posted January 20, 2012 Report Share Posted January 20, 2012 I like the turbo icon, I think it would look wrong with nothing to the left it the text Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedCandySHO Posted January 20, 2012 Author Report Share Posted January 20, 2012 I am thinking of removing the green from the supercharger so the metallic of the plate shows through. Due to the production cost, I will only be doing 1 version of the plate. The letters & supercharger will be embossed like the factory emblem, so to do multiple versions for a short run isn't cheap. Thanks for the feedback guys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrator Posted January 20, 2012 Report Share Posted January 20, 2012 I think it would almost be impossible to get dental floss or fishing line into the recess where the Ecoboost is located. Keyword. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IowaFoSho Posted January 20, 2012 Report Share Posted January 20, 2012 I agree. Just having the "Twin Turbo" would look very nice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chad1140 Posted February 8, 2012 Report Share Posted February 8, 2012 I think that the Turbo icon looks waaay better than the hippie leaf, which looks like it belongs on a VW bus. So with or without the image I am fine and in as long as its in the neighborhood of 70 bucks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedCandySHO Posted February 11, 2012 Author Report Share Posted February 11, 2012 Hey guys. Got the final pricing. Just not sure I am willing to take this on. Unfortunately to do these right (to match the factory insert in quality & looks) the cost is substantial. The per price isn't bad, but there is minimum quantities (1500pcs minimum) & tooling / die charges. By the time I buy new emblems, replace the insert and resell them, the price will end up around $80-90. Thoughts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mjhpadi Posted February 11, 2012 Report Share Posted February 11, 2012 Wow, seems like a pretty high minimum quantity...1500 pieces. I would still be interested, but not if you have to buy that quantity to get them done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedCandySHO Posted February 11, 2012 Author Report Share Posted February 11, 2012 Thanks guys. I requested a quote for 500pcs, but the cost doubled. I just don't think it is worth it given the limited number of SHO's out there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lsdozer Posted February 11, 2012 Report Share Posted February 11, 2012 Man, I wanted one too, but the cash outlay for you would be incredible! You would be stuck with a butt load of these. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bpd1151 Posted February 11, 2012 Report Share Posted February 11, 2012 *sigh* 1500pcs to start huh? Damn. Not look'n good unless you chose to like throw up an Ebay ad and/or advertise in other forums about their availability. But even then, I'd still be hard pressed to say that you'd sell all of them. Perhaps, like once word gets out. But I'd be think'n you'd be sit'n on a heaping pile of these for a few months for sure. Price you posted is ok with me personally, but I doubt most would flip for it. I mean after all, it'd be a "rarer" lil gem to add to an already unique whip. Keep us posted as to your thoughts. I know I turned crash712us onto a patent attorney for his creation, maybe you can do the same for these and price any subsequent orders outside of your pals here on the great EB accordingly *wink *wink Sent from my DROID3 using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest 4DRHTRD Posted February 12, 2012 Report Share Posted February 12, 2012 Can you make a black replacement Ford emblem for the grill? Same badge on the trucks and Flexs, I'd buy that in a heartbeat! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
