I would still be leary of this deal if you have not already been sucked into it. Like I said. I paid darn near $250 for two custom badges, got one, have left message, get no reply. Customer service right now is running a strong D-
I hope Linda contacts me at some point about this, but am getting nothing back yet.
What's your opinion if the quality if worth the $$$? (for one badge, of course)
Hope you get your 2nd soon.

I thought his wife might be handling new orders. Hopefully we'll hear something soon.

Hi everybody! I'm finally free! I have a bunch of badges on the table that I need to fingure out what's going on. I know that one of the special order badges was short one- I looked at the order that called for two and their invoice that shows that onely one sent. I haven't gotten a chance to go through everything just yet but I wanted to let you know that I'm going to get on top of it! It wasn't fair for me to cut this so short and throw it on Linda's lap, I assumed that it would be simple and straight forward. I made the order form that I sent to the company as simple as I possibly could with pictures and descriptions... alas, I made an ass of my self... I'm pleased with the quality of the badges, but am disapointed with the adheasive that I was told would be the same as that used by auto mfrs. - maybe on a Yugo?!! Right now, I have to moe the lawn which is up to my knees, and get some things ready for Emily's birthday party tomorrow. I'll then have time to lay everything out and get it in order for my phone call on Tues as well as making sure that what needs to go out GETS out. I appologize to all of you who haven't received your order yet. I wish I could give discounts to make up for it but the mfr up'd the pricing after I placed the order which cost me more than what I received. Hang in there, I'll get it straighted out.
On another note, I have a V8 version that is similar to what I've shown somewhere here before that I think those who might be interested in will be very pleased with. I've also decided to expalnd this idea of custom auto badges and try to do it for a larger audience. I can't think of a name for it yet, and the only one that I've heard of so far that I really like but can't have is "Motorhead Jewelry." Anyway, before I think about something like that, my first priority is to get you guys taken care of. Again, I can't express enough how disapointed I am in how this has turned out so far for those left hanging, except to say that I will make it right- I promise.

Welcome home Andrew. Glad to hear that you still have some that have not been sent yet, because I am still patiently waiting on mine. I am not in any hurry to get it, so get settled in and take care of the family.

Good to hear your back and taking care of everything. I was the one who ordered two and received one. I have to say the quality is better than expected though.
I'll be ordering more, I think to make the process easier, I'll be putting a web site together. I'm just having trouble comming up with an idea for the name of a company that makes these things. First things first though, getting the original order people settled and then to get the mfr on the same page. Here is a V8 version that I was thinking might be of some interest...
Feel free to give me any negative feedback that you feel might make it better looking. Please include your address so that I can deliver my response in person.

Can you pm me with a price with shipping to 62341 and estimated delivery?

hey andrew, good to hear from your again! i'm sure i missed it but are you doing any the same size as the original? i would like 1 to say "INDY GT" to match this car.
They're almost exactly the same size. I noticed that there's a couple hairs worth of difference in the shape but for all intents and purposes, the badge is extremely close to the original. Anything can be done. I'd be happy to throw something together to see what you think.

Thanks. I'll def. be ordering some more. I think this time though to keep it simpler, I won't get into offering different colors. That may be one of the issues with the original order.

Don't know if I missed something or not. But are these badges made to go on the bumper or something else? And what is the cost? Do you have a page with all the different designs? If they do go on the bumper, how are they attached?
I sent some PM's out... One of the problems that Linda had (me too now that I've looked into it) is that the solid record that I have of all the orders is from PayPal. People sent me PM's about what they wanted but didn't include that info on the comment section of the PayPal transmission. I see that many of my PM's have been cleaned out, though I have some notes. There are 9 badges and one Canadian badge that need to go out still. The Canadian one came back because it lacked an invoice (?????) anyway, that'll go out by FedEx. So... PM me with what name and badge you ordered and I'll get things sent out asap.

I'm still interested in acquiring some badges from you. I'm interested in a nose badge "Fiero GT" in red. And two additional badges for the front fender panels that simply say "Fiero" in red also. What is the mounting method for your badges?

That Canadian one is likely mine Unless you mark it gift when you ship it, they look for an invoice at the border.
I can;t wait to get it, it will look soo bitching on my lappy
