Prices I have seen are reasonable. If you are a HAMB Alliance member you get a discount. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JZRIV Posted March 22, 2013 Share Posted March 22, 2013 I paid $60 ea to get the 66 ones done from a local (to me) place that has quality equal to Pauls. I see those emblems appear to have a black background. If Pauls was repainting that after, of course that would increase cost but not that much. Those emblems appear to have no pitting which is good. M&P RefinishingMy price was when dropping off a large lot of parts so that may have affected the price somewhat but again not by that much.

RivNut Posted March 23, 2013 Share Posted March 23, 2013 Jayson,Are those the electroplated plastic emblems? My older step-son is having some plastic parts electroplated for some things he a buddy of his are making. He's in Las Vegas until Tues. When he gets back, I'll ask him who is doing his stuff. All I know is that it's some place in Detroit.Ed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
