What's funny is that I paid (too much) for the colored crest wheel caps to replace my black/silver ones - now that I've seen this thread, I want to go back in the other direction. It turned out looking really, really sharp!

Thank you all for your positive comments!
I am really enjoying the new look on the T with this crest.
BTW the seller's id on eBay is this: https://www.ebay.com/usr/interestedparty
I am sure that is the same as Carrera East that @Penn4s mentioned above, as all the labels on the package, invoice, etc, were from Carrera East Studios.

Has anyone been able to get a hold of Jim? I PM’d and emailed him with some questions and he finally responded, but when I tried to order two crests I never heard back. Ended up buying one off his eBay site and I agree the quality is great, but I am wanting some custom ones.

I’m planning on Mexico Blue on one and red on the other. He told me it’s only an additional $25 for a custom color so I don’t think getting them done together would make a difference. I gave up trying so I started researching ways to make these myself and am almost ready to get started.

Roger that and sorry I did not pay closer attention to your avatar in respect to the color of your car. I have doubts I can get these made but I am hoping for the best since I do not have the skills or patience to make them myself.

Fortunately I have the patience, we’ll see about the skill. I’m very particular about getting it right, so if it turns out perfect, I may offer to make them for other Rennlisters.

Jim got back to me this morning and I look forward to the Miami Blue custom crests I ordered: hood, wheels & steering wheel.

Yep, as I said, it’s a bit frustrating dealing with Jim in that he takes a while to respond back. Hang in there......you won’t be disappointed! Great quality. I believe he and his daughter do this as a second job.
bob, what was the cost for the crest on the wheels? What kind of wheels do ya have? Do you have to send him your wheel caps?
