Custom Trail Emblem Made

I found a local place that will do them for around $20 per piece. I would have to get a large order and go there and pick them up and ship them myself though. If people are interested I can get a group buy going. Attached is a sample that they sent me.

Is it metal or plastic ? Also would final version be polished ?
 
FYI as I said I would post this when I could verify the prints. I have only received the old revision. I like the material, it will need to primed/painted/or dipped although it is smooth, there are some patterned lines.

You can order them here for less than $12 a piece plus shipping:
https://www.shapeways.com/product/R33EXWH6U/trail-emblem-revision-02

You can choose what materials you want, I have only printed white and black plastic so far. I would suggest white or black then plasti-dip.

Attached are 1. the back 2. close detail front

By all means, anyone is welcome to order from the site above. The guy I talked to told me upfront he could not compete with shapeways price and I understood that. They are a much smaller business and I am always about supporting small/local business first. At the same time you all are the consumer and want your dollar to go as far as possible. My offer will still stand for those who want to get them from my guy, we'll see where the list is at the end of the week.

Totally understood. His prints look good too.

I just want to see someone print one in polished nickel steel :D

Is that the "Black Strong and Flexible" Finish with the description "Black nylon plastic with a matte finish and slight grainy feel." If so, I wonder how the other colored finishes look, since they claim to have a polished smooth finish in the description. Same price as the black as well.

Just ordered a pair of the black plastic. May end up with the matte black metal variety if I like the way the black plastic look. Wanted to see how they look in person on the trym before I drop $67/each on the metal ones.

Thanks to all who helped deliver a cool idea and design!

Yes, the one in my post pictured is "Strong & Flexible Black Plastic" the front side "feels" smooth, although not anything like injection molded plastic.

Not sure they look smoother but I think they still have a tiny bit of texture.

How will you mount it, double sided tape ?
