"Invisible" Badges?

Post by oolunchbox »

I want to debadge my vibe and re-badge with the decals from GrafxWerks but i want it to look something like this picture i did with photoshop.http://www.sexychris.net/images/vibebadge.jpgi've got a shadow base vibe and i want to know if the Pewter Metallic decals will match very closely if not perfectly. basically im going for the debadged look but i want people to know who beat 'em (if it ever comes to that). and yes i'm already lookin to order the 3rd breaklight "vibe" decal as well.thanksLuNCH

Contact Ryan at grafxwerks (grafx@grafxwerks.com) and let them know what you're trying to do. Send him a link to the pic too.They can probably custom do it for you, and their products are stellar quality.

Could definitely do those... they would mimic the style of the outlined GenVibe.Com decals.- RyanGrafxWerks

first off, thanks for the prompt responsessecond, i dont want it to be outlined, i just want a badge (or rather 3 plus the arrow head) that are the same size and shape as the factory ones but the same color as the paint (shadow).can this be done? or has it already?

you could go with overlays from grafxwerks the same color as your vibe and maybe get reflective ones. you would hardly see them in the day but when lights hit them at night they would reflect the light and shine.

If you want to order, you can simply order the badge overlays and then specify in the "comments" box on check-out that you'd prefer Pewter Metallic as your color choice (its not offered in the pull-down menus).- RyanGrafxWerks

are the overlays the same size or would the Bordered "Vibe" Decals be closer to the original badge size?also, i put in an order for a 3rd brakelight overlay, when you get the order could you combine the 2 and ill jsut send one money order? ill mentino my prevous order number in the comments.

But if you want a more "bubbly" look, I could simply do the bordered decals in solid Pewter.If you order, simply add the brake light to your new order. I don't "save" the old orders unless I receive payment for them.- RyanGrafxWerks
