Custom 08 Dash Plaque

Here is a sample dash plaque i made. Let me know what you guys think. I can do different colors. Also if you dont like carbon as the background i can do something different for it as well. Like solid colors and what not.

here is the plaque on a white background


here is a better picture, unfortunately its on a sheet of carbon so you cant see the outline of the plaque.


Anyway, give me any input guys. The pictures just dont do any justice, it looks much better in person. The plaque's dimensions are 5" x 1 3/8"

Re: Custom 08 Dash Plaque

They look pretty good ! I wonder how it [ will] compares to Dodge's plaque ? Very creative ;perhaps you may want to submit to Chrysler [but also perhaps get it copywrighted first .wink,wink] ! Also it might be "neat" to have one about half that size for a key chain fob !

Re: Custom 08 Dash Plaque

That is really AWESOME!!

As for the 500 question.
Best to wait a bit, there is a chance that the car might not get labelled as an SRT8 (even though it is identical the US 08 SRT8 in every way other than the labelling).

they Might just be called a CHallenger 500. Not a Challenger SRT8 500

WOW....IS THAT NICE!!

Can't wait to see what you can come up with for a Challenger badge/emblem. If it's anything like this, I want one.

You did yourself proud.

I wouldn't mind submitting them to Chrysler, but I have no idea as how to go about doing that. I actually thought bout the key chain idea, but I'd have to change the layout. Reason being is I can't make much smaller text on the numbers. Its gets alot more difficult, but I'll see what I can come up with.

Re: Custom 08 Dash Plaque

thanks for all the compliments guys. As far as making the challenger 500. It will be no problem, I wanna wait until I know for sure what the car will be labeled as though. Also, if you guys have any better ideas as to how the dash plaque should look please let me know. The one I posted is just an example of what I can do. Like I said before, if you would like to see a different color text, or different background then carbon fiber let me know. I've got two more samples in the works, I'll post up pics asap
