F430 Dash Badge
« on: March 30, 2017, 11:04:17 PM »
Evening all

Had this made for the car.

Solid aluminium plate, that has had F430 emblem CNC'ed into it, so it sits proud.

The aluminium has then been :

Polished on the edges and the lettering
Then etch primed
Edges and letter rubbed off again
Then gloss painted
Edges and letter rubbed off Yet again
The clear lacquered..!

What a process, but well worth the work.

Pictures of the badge on the car do NOT do the badge any favours to be honest, but take it from me it looks amazing...

I just added 4 * M4 Allen key head bolts for the 4 corners, and held down with double sided tape.
Job done.. ;D

Nice.
If it doesn't fit first time, use harsh words...!
