    That's right!
    I'll be on my way to pick up the rest of the emblems TODAY and I'll start shipping. Please consider that it takes me a bit of time to ship with these many options and I take my time to make sure you truly get what you ordered. Don't hessitate to contact me for anything, I'm trying my best to get these bad boys in your hands.

    Got it in the mail today (natural alum). It polished up good with Nevr-Dull polish by Eagle One. Opened the hood and reached in and unclipped (3 clips) the original emblem and installed the HORNS. Took less than 5 minutes. Thanks Andres.

    done 100% by hand... 400g sandpaper to remove the machine marks, 1000g s.p.to remove the scratches from step1, 1500g s.p. to begin polishing, 2000g s.p. to finish the sanding process. then i cleaned it up real well and used meguires mag and wheel polish to polish it up...its a hella lot of work because you need to really take your time and make sure every mark from the last step is gone before moving on. i knew it was gunna take me a while but i was amazed when it was almost 5 hours straight before it was complete haha. Im glad i did it though because its exactly how i had wanted it to look.

    Did you loose much depth on the bevel?

    I too sanded the machine marks off last night with a 300 then a 600. It looks good but I could take it farther...

    I found a local shop to polish the one I bought my dad for $20........will only take them 3 days. Better than spending 4hrs and frustration doing it myself.

    Got mine yesterday, polished it up some (polish job isn't perfect, I think I'm gonna have my neighbor powder coat it eventually) and stuck it on my truck. Totally badass. My fiancee even thinks so. :D

    Thanks Andres!

    Good design for what it is, but I've never understood people's need to be perceived as evil or diabolical, with so much negative stuff going on in the world already. When I see skulls, horns, etc. on vehicles I think of ex-cons and thuggery. Not much different than gang-bangers who drive around disturbing the peace with subs.
