would like feedback...... thinking about making this custom
plate a standard production item.

American Flag throttle body plate

There's one more view in that directory if you want to figgit with your address bar/url

 

I Like it.....was thinking about doing the american flag theme on my homeade fuel rail covers.....would go well with that....just wish they weren't so expensive.....

 

that would go perfect with some fuel rail covers from www.autobuffs.net

 

I like and would buy one for the LT1 going into my El Camino.

 

I like it! I didn't think I would but I do. Looks VERY nice!

How did you do the colors???

 

i like it! But i proabobly wouldnt put it in my car. just wouldnt match. Whats that gonna run u BTW??

 

i think it looks really cool and unique

 

We have always tried to steer clear of anything with multiple color.
Just too damned time consuming to do.
The picture dosen't do it justice, the stars are perfect, the scale meets all the requiremnts set be Congress many years ago (yes, there are regulations for how to make an American flag!)

The 2 step powder coating process (mask the star field, shoot the red, bake, cool, remove mask; mask the red, shoot the blue,
bake, cool, remove masking) then remachine the top. IT IS just that, ....time consuming

But, we are going to do them. Selling price will be $80. Thats about $12 over the cost of our top end raised tb plates. The pricing really isn't going cover the nut (with the extra machining and above described powder coating process),
BUT with all that goes on today, I've set the price as low as I can.

We are right next to New York, I drive close to the city to get to the drag strip. The skyline just isn't the same. I've kept a flag in the interior of my car for every event it's been to since 9-11. Now I'll have one under the hood as well

 

I think it looks great, very well done.

For those of you who don't know, MBA products are like the Rolex of appearance enhancements for our cars. Every item they make is of the highest quality and is damn near a masterpiece.

If you haven't seen an MBA product in person, you have no idea how good the quality is.

I just placed an order for the whole enchilada from MBA, and my car is gonna look awesome once it is deceked out. Can't wait!

 

im ordering a bunch of stuff too the beginning of next week! i cant wait to get all the stuff! geez you could have ordered me a few things too lata

 

Knowing a little about how this kinda stuff works and is made and the labor involved, that price isn't too bad at all IMO!

I'm going to be really fixing my 94 up nice this year and looks like I'll be doing what you just did, Jason... ordering some really cool stuff from MBA! The only real problem is that John has too many cool items and I don't have enough $$$ so I'll have to pick my favorites. LOL!

 

Thanks Brent....
We are almost ready to release center caps...when you going to send me those hi res pictures of the TT2 caps on the yellow car?

 

I love it!! now to find a way to use it on my LS1.. lol

Glad to see your making more stuff for LS1's.. What we need are some new billet tensioner pulleys

I love my MBA products

 

WOW....I have been telling myself that for weeks now. I think, ever since the weather turned to "too damned cold" to be in the parking lot, I have been wanting the time to go measure up the wife's TA. Even brought home one of our LT1 tensioner pulleys
to compare.
The LS1 engine bay cries for that tensioner to have a nice polished cap on it!

Steve, I've been meaning to tell you...you have one righteous car there, bud!

Puts mine to shame
(mine)

 

You probably won't believe this but I *think* I may have sprayed the car off once since the last time I emailed you There is still no wax/Zaino on the paint!!! I wanted to get the car looking REAL GOOD then take some pics for you but, crap, I haven't even had a chance to wash the damn thing!!!

Maybe I can find some time to wash the front fender and wheel and send you pics of that? LOL!

I really do need to get the car cleaned up. While I may not be able to wax/Zaino it, I'm going to make a real effort to at least wash it on Thurs or Fri. If I do, I'll snap some pics.
