Default Custom colour oval badge

I was searching for some info on the history of the blue oval and stumbled upon this and thought it was worthy of sharing around.

Yeh, seen it a while ago, not as easy to as it looks - well to get a factory finish anyway. There is another mob in the states that makes them in any colour u want - covers all the sizes also, I just installed white ones to my EB a few weeks ago.

There was a post around here some where in the last 2 months that showed the company that made custom coloured badges - i thought they were an Aussie Mob though

Or you could go ORIGINAL like my Ford Badge and change it to an LED

Hey ratman, could you get a close up pic of the white badges?

Looking through the customer rides gallery at planetauto, the final pictures from the how-to, I linked to are, in there. I wonder if its the same guy.
