Default Where to get blank console engine data plate engraved or printed??

I have a blank data plate for my console, can't find anyone around here that will print or engrave it. I have been to t-shirt shops, trophy shops, etc and nobody wants to do it..

Anyone on the forum have good luck, and can recommend where to sent mine to have it done?? Or a contact number, etc.

Thanks!

Ya know you can order them from Zip.
Unless you're after some custom design or non standard info.

Hey, Zip buys them from somewhere. Worth a call to them to see if they'll order you a custom one. Couldn't hurt.

I may try that. I asked this question some time ago, and the canned answer was go to a trophy shop, or someplace that does lithographs, or a printer, or engraver, etc... No one around here thought they could do it, so here I am back at square one. This can't be that difficult!!

I mean, they sell blank plates, so there must be somebody who will do the custom info...

Try Things Remembered at the mall. They do engraving while you wait.

Jeweler or a trophy shop. Try Engraving in the Yellow Pages.
