Can you make a picture of it? I'm curious to see what that looks like..dwvinky said:I have access to a laser engraver. I make em out of plexiglass. An 11x14 sheet is $3. I can get about 7 covers out of 1 sheet. Any color or design u can think of.

But then the price is 60 euro's per plate.. so that kinda sucks.
A printed sticker + something to protect it (laquer or tape) seems the best way..
There are some guys that have had engraved aluminium, but that doesn't really work for all designs/looks.
That is actually made of metal, and using the same techniques as Randall.Caine said:m0jo said:I've found a company able and willing to do it.Caine said:Anybody able to make an exact repro of the BLACK Randall OEM Brahma faceplate?

I guess I wouldn't really want to bother and unless it looked really close to OEM and was going to last that way. the sticker thing sounds kind of cheesey to me. It seems like someone could do a run of them, like 50 or so and eventually could sell them all on eBay or whatever and retail for like 20-30 bucks. I think there is some amount of demand. Maybe it might be hard to sell 100 or more of them, but there are a lot of white faced Brahmas out there that sort of stand out like a sort thumb loaded next to any of the other OEM black faces.
m0jo said:The problem is: yes there is demand, but not for 1 plate. Everybody wants their own custom plates.
And that means retooling or whatever for each one, so you don't have the advantage of a run of 50 .. you'd have 50 runs of 1..
Maybe the Brahma yes, but that's kind of the only one.
