    Hi everyone. I have a quote from the guy in the US that makes these badges - turns out they are farkin expensive, but I thought I would post here to see if anyone wanted one. Billet aluminum, CNC machined, triple chrome plated and ceramic coated. They are $475 (aussie dollarydoos) each (!) landed to me, plus postage to you. I am still deciding if I want one that bad, but if you do, let me know and we can combine an order or I can send you the quote to do your own.

    A tad seriously, the guy’s costs are all in the setup, materials SFA. Probably makes them to order.
    Mebbe if yooze guise could put together a group buy you could get them DRASTICALLY cheaper?
    Like if the guy makes a profit at $475 for one, he probably makes more profit at $50 each for 10 ...
    Just a thought. ‘Cos I do think they look pretty Smurfy.
