I bought mine on here for $50 I think. They polished up perfectly and look new.

I sent mine off on Monday to Spacecoast, I'm hoping to hear back soon. I'll post pics when they're done. You made a good find there Jeff!

Well Riverman, they were more than $50.00 but they did a good job and they will be back on the boat soon.
Here's the triplets. One for each side and one for the glove box.

Good stuff rarely comes cheap! Now get busy with some flat black paint and an art brush and fill in the groove.

Thanks guys, they do look good.
Yeah, I knew that was coming. I asked for a restoration, so I thought..... but that's ok, I'm just glad they're refinished and back in my hands. The black in the groove does set the look off a bit. Sooner or later I'll get around to it, it's at the bottom of the list for the moment.There is only one way to avoid criticism: do nothing, say nothing, and be nothing. –Aristotle

Sense this thread from 2008 has been brought back to life. Just for the record I have people send me Emblems all the time. Usually because they are pitted real bad and before they can chrome them they need to be filled with copper, smoothed then nickeled then chromed. Can get rather pricey.
Most people want a custom look that enhances their boat. Here is a set I did in a Chrome Base inlayed the lettering in Black then top coated in Red Anodize. All done in Powder. So yes they will handle the Heat required to powdercoat.

Those went on a 1990 HST Red, White and Yellow. They look sweet, Bud did a great job for me. Thanks Buddy I will have some more work for you in the future. Gary
