A few pics here of my dirty car with my new boost gauge/new headlights/ and custom one off aluminum arrowhead. Enjoy!

I like the arrowhead, but it seems too plain from what I'm used to. Keep it. Anything one-off is something to display and keep. My own take on that one-off would be to engrave the other images into the arrowhead that you have. No color, just engraving. Deep engraving.

Ide like to get it engarved R.C., just no-one around here does it, the only person I know who does it lives like 2 1/2hrs away, I used to go past his shop at least twice a week when I delivered for Home Ripoff.

Rick, please.

How'd they do it? Make a template from your stock arrowhead and start cutting from billet, or was it an aluminum sheet? I just might copycat off you. That's kinda sharp looking.

Streetshaker, try a local mall around Christmas time.

In the mall in my town their is always a kiosk that does engraving on their machine, they might be able to do something for you.

Actually the guy who made it made a template from his arrowhead on his 04 GTP, apparently the arrowheads are the same size on about 10 different models spanning many years, but I sent him templates of mine just to make extra sure. He then proceeded to machine it and bam there it is. All I had to do was put a curve in it to fit the bumper better cause when it was done, its flat.
