Black chrome Skyline badge
$70. OEM part which I blacked myself. For quality, here is a pic of the Infiniti badges I made at the same time. It has been professionally done, with about 1 coat of primer, 10 coats of black, and 5 coats of gloss/sealant. It looks great at night, even better during the day cause it has a mettalic look to it. For fastest response, email me at infosai@gmail.com
Thanks for looking.

Looks very nice for sure... but going from $20 brand new to $70 is a bit... too much, no?
I'm sure the primer, paint, gloss/sealant used on the badge AND the layout foam both combined is well under $10.
At $70... I'd rather get the jdm full trunk badge kit and do all of em.
I'm sure you spent quality time on doing this and yeah I admit they look sick without a doubt.. but let's be a little more reasonable for us broke (or too lazy to DIY) people out there!

$50 for one badge is insane bro.. (not your asking price... the price you paid for yours)
That's more than what normal dealerships sell them for! I think I've seen em at $40 at most at a local stealership.... I thought that was asking too much... but $50..? dang.. I'm sorry but you got butt raped there bro.
Again, your work does look clean and high quality but I think I'll head over to a friend's house (he's got bunch of painting crap.. he used to work at a bodyshop
) and maybe give it a try myself with whatever leftover badge I have hanging around for a test mule first... 
Bump for sick badge tho!
