Yeah I am working on it, unsure if anyone else is.
I hae 3D models being made and I am looking into getting emblems made. Doesn't look terribly cheap.
Getting plastic ones injection molded is probably gonna be the cheapest for mass production. Gonna cost about $500 for the mold to be created and about $25 each, then chroming them is gonna cost another $75...
So if I can sell 500 of them its gonna look like $2 each or $4 for a set
I am looking more at selling 100 so its gonna be $12/set...(50 sets) just to break even, not counting the time put into the 3D modeling.
Realistically I am looking at about ~$20/set to pay the 3D modeller, mold making and injection molding for a production run of 100 pieces(50 sets)
Aluminum I havent even bothered with because of the expense of the raw materials and machining time required for each piece, not inc adhesice backing etc.
