Gauging interest
Just wanted to see how much interest there would be in Carbon fiber dipped badges and maybe bezels? and what would someone pay for it?

Hydro-graphed or hydro-dip its called. I started doing it for my custom business here in Alaska. Most the time I get hunters who want there guns camo'd but I can do carbon fiber too.

natedawg MAKES badges for us. Quite good quality from what I've seen. Doubt you'd make a dent in his business, as he has a reputation around here.

...he isn't around alot...
I'm not saying its a definite.. but I'd think if someone was looking for a custom badge, they'd go to him first. That was my point.

I never was a fan of it, but I would like some stuff dipped for the bravada, but it would have to match the other factory wood grain stuff.......

All the work I've done is for customers and I never took pics I guess (will start doing so) So as soon as I get the money to order some more supplies I will do some of my stuff and get some customer pics up .
