does anyone know where i can get a word made up in chrome to go on my bootlid? like the old morris mini script.

You wouldnt have a word made in chrome as such. If you cut the word out of mild steel, hacksaw and file it would be my method. Once youv got what you want in mild steel take it to a chromers and get it chromed.
Id probably just make it out of stainless or ally, but thats me.
Hope this has been of some help.

yeh make it from stainless and then polish it like crazy and laquer it

thanks for the replies, but im a girl. so where can i get someome to make it for me in stainless?

[Dom]

sounds cool, a skilled mate phaps?

[Telejmp]

reez, why does the fact you are a girl mean you cant do it yourself?
Dont think you cant do it, just try, if it doesnt work out , it doesnt work out.
I know plenty of guys that couldnt do that job, its not a sex thing, just depends if you can do it or not, you might suprise yourself and it could be very satisfying.

nah its not my thing... i just want to find someone to do it for me, less fuss

[reez1891]

ive still had no luck with this. can anyone offer me a better suggestion than making it myself!?

You could try your local college, if they have a CAD engineering department, they could design and make it for you.

hey reez if you really don't want to go to all the trouble of chroming or getting it made of stainless you could just get a vinyl made of tyhe words you want...you can get vinyls in any color you want even chrome silver. just a thought though.

thats what i was goint to suggest, you'll be able to get a chrome sticker made at your local signs firm, and i'd have thought it shouldn't be too expensive either.

[reez1891]

Look forward to see what that looks like on the back of your mini, if you can find someone to make the wording for you that is
