Just want to make things clear. We use real carbon rear plates. They are no cardboard print on with carbon look. The 3M rear adhesive cover looks like paper. But if peel off you still see the carbon material. See below.

That looks nice. It would look even nicer on the front and back of my car, but I guess that's not to be. I ordered my emblems in AUGUST and still haven't received my back plates yet.

Come to think of it the only thing I HAVE received is a hassle and at this point I am thoroughly disgusted with the situation. I have been understanding and accommodating of the delays and excuses but there is a point where I just have to give up. How many times will I have to give you my contact information to get the job done?

Don't worry, I'm not going to go through the trouble of filing disputes over $80 worth of plastic, but as a businessman and a sponsor of the forum you should be ashamed of yourself Jay.

No issues here either. Is it possible Hurricane Sandy is impacting the situation?

To indulge my total OCD instincts, I started thinking about how to make this even better, and this is what I came up with:

I saved the plastic dealer plate that came with my car, and will use that material for my backing plate. I'll then paint it Gun Metallic to match the car. As the ultimate bit of anal over-obsession, I'll cover the backing plate with a piece of Invisishield (clear bra) to protect the paint from chips.

Supplies:

1 - dealer plastic plate = free from dealer

2 - aerosol touch-up paint = automotivetouchup.com

3 - some clear bra = invisiblemask.com

There's even a 10% code off the price of the film "10OFF"

I'll let you guys know how it turns out in a few weeks when I get around to doing this little project.

No problem. Just let me know when you need them. Probably best to order the badges with any backing so that they can be used to cut the new ones.

Have you ordered the badges yet? Seems like there may be a Hurricane Sandy-related issue with delivery/communication.

Nope, but I will be sure to get them with a back so I can use it as a template. I think I've got your email or I'll get it from Tracie and let you know when I'm ready.
