Custom Stuff

I was thinking (sniff..sniff...what's that smell)I have access to fabrication equipment that can make, letters, numbers, emblems, designs...wood, aluminum, plastic...whatever. If anyone has any ideas..(I have a few myself..interior trim kit, engine trim kits, etc... of course tasteful clean looks are first and foremost) any ideas let me know you people think and we'll go from there.

It's a good place to start. If I can do this without too much trouble...I don't anticipate any. we'll try others...I'm thinking 4 or so inches.

how about a "H-6 3.3" or just the "SVX".
I also love the one Boone posted.

It looks like the "SVX" part is from the applique that was standard on most right by the rear small window... I'd say 5" x 4.5" for this one.

I had a request recently for something that would have to be molded. So to clarify I will say that my ability is limited to...we'll say, flat things, with dimensional effects. Trust me though there are still a ton things that can be done within those parameters. I've seen plenty of what can be done. I hope this helps.

yeah could you do the engine cover that says boxer instead of H-6, and maybe some brushed aluminum accents for the interior. I was wondering, can the passengers side vent thats in the ersatz suede possibly have a similar fake wood peice, rather than the pastic it has? just wondering, don't know if this would be flat or not. Also like AWD things would be cool too.

I could probably modify the existing cover creatively somehow..if that's what your implying...I can't make a "new" cover though. Brushed aluminum accents are do-able.I'm starting to think I would like to take a few ideas at a time and work with those. I don't want to take on 17 projects and fall into the "too many things at once trap". So I'll let the ideas go for another day or so...then I'll pick three, and work with those. Sound good

Lightbulb Here ya go....

How 'bout something that says "SVX - The true beauty of AWD" I just thought of it... Maybe it could go under the little rear side window for those of us that didn't have the "SVX' badge there. I don't know what color, Should probably vary since there are diffrent color cars, but maybe Silver or something like that for the darker color cars. cool??

This part is available from a JDM supplier. If you "really" want one, get on Lwin's JDM order list.

This is available through Subaruparts.com. I don't have the part number, but, if you do a search on "decal" it should come up.

yeah, i know that JDM parts order has them, but i thought that he might be able to make it cheaper, like just make the BOXER and then i could undo the H-6 thing and attach the BOXER. just an idea... oh yeah and what was up with that signed one that was on ebay a while ago
