NCReatta 198 Posted December 20, 2011 Just had to post a picture.. It looks so cool. If someone else is interested in one, I can probably have my guy do it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Booreatta 158 Posted December 20, 2011 Hey Marck I think that looks really good. What color do you call that and what process did your guy use. Did he do the console and the doors?CK Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NCReatta 198 Posted December 20, 2011 Thanks! It's laser etched into the trim piece. The color of the lettering is just whatever is behind the anodized aluminum. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

KDirk 326 Posted December 20, 2011 Marck,Good show! Strangely enough, I had been considering doing something very similar in my 88 but just hadn't gotten it together yet. Did you go to a sign shop, or do you know someone with a laser-etching rig? That is one "toy" I'd love to own - could come up with hundreds of projects for it.

KDirk 326 Posted December 20, 2011 Marck,I think I have a spare trim bezel for the CRT in a box here somewhere...if I can dig it up, I will PM you for the details. Unless you end up posting them in this thread.Thanks!KDirk Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NCReatta 198 Posted December 20, 2011 Ok, I can get them done for about $55. If you ship them to me, I'll get a couple together and get them to my guy. Just include a return shipping address, and the name just as you want it to appear on the bezel.Just PM me for my address. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
harry yarnell 64 Posted December 21, 2011 Are we talking the lettering, and/or the brownish hue in the photo, or just the lettering? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jim 63 Posted December 21, 2011 Marck,Your parents must have been psychic. The '89 Reattas are 22 years old and I believe you are about 17?Just kidding. It looks very nice.You mentioned you don't have too many of the '89 panels so if anyone wants a panel to be lettered I have lots of them for $ 8 each plus $ 7 for Priority Mail shipping. This way anyone wanting to have one lettered can still keep their original as a spare.I can have it sent right to Marck if someone needs one. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

And they could afford a Reatta when it was new too! Thanks Jim, I've got a few, but if I get into a bind, I'll let you know. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
