It can be done, but unless you spend a fortune, it won't look good at all. You would be much better off to buy some decent used emblems on eBay, unless you might stumble onto some at a swap meet. Keep in mind that pitted emblems are VERY difficult (and therefore expensive) to replate properly too, so search for pretty good emblems. Frankly, many people elect to merely fill in the wholes, and go for the "clean" look. gasoline_fiend Apr 23rd, 07, 6:47 PM Get the current issue of Car Craft. They have an article on casting your own emblems. 69396ss Apr 24th, 07, 10:45 AM Oh yea..... The old high School sand casting technique :) | ||
