Hi Amol,

As I told you earlier I have a friend who can do this for us but I have still not taken it up with him.
However, do finalise your Artwork with perfect specs and revert.

We shall then make a couple of these and distribute.
But AFAIK a good quantity on order will make it more economical for us.

Dont worry about the accuracy what you have made is very good. These dome stickers were a kind of a cottage industry in anycase and variations are common.

Does anyone else know makers of Dome stickers " Ronnie can you help"

got it amol, i will perfect my model from your data, the CNC company 3DPD told me they also do investment casting if the quantity is more, will talk to him on monday and let you know.

If we are able to get close to original, there is good market for these in Italy. We can get a good rate for all the excess quantity we need. I am talking almost 30 euros a piece.

Wow!! I am happy that this one wheel cap can complete someones set of wheel caps. In fact the scrap guy was initially quoting 200 for it. I bargained few times and left it. But when Manish and me went, we picked it up for 50rs as some worker in the shop just gave it.

Suren, a word of caution.

This wheelcap is an inferior quality local reproduction, the design is not as clean and crisp as the original. Plus it has that nasty bolt through the centre. While you should definitely take this one as well, do continue to hunt for better piece. Hubcaps can make or break the show of the car, In your case you have some superb ones in great shape, even if one aluminium and 3 steel.

Karl, will take your advice and definitely scourge for one more hubcap. This one makes it a set of 4 steel ones and moreover one of the rims that I have is missing some clips. This hubcap would be mounted on that rim since it already has the hole to enable fastening it on to the rim.

Arun, thanks once again to you and Manish, for this.

I have few more comming, lets see how is their quality (i believe they are repro also)

Further I have got hold of Trims for select in Aluminium ???? by KK Industries, Arriving on 27th. I am surprised.

Amol & all,

Enquired for the dome stickers, well we need to have a minimum order of 1000 numbers to have them produced. I am yet to prepare the artwork. And after that will ask for the price quote.

Is there a demand for those many stickers??. I think 3d printing and then lacquering will be much better.
