Default Custom Exhaust Plate

Hello-

I am looking for somewhere or someone who can make a custom exhaust plate for my 2003. I am wanting something that is different than the logos and the flags; something that truly has my signature on it.

Any and all info is appreciated.

Thank you,
1MRTYME

if you already have one on the car you can use it as a template... the emblem is plastic and will come off using a razor blade to pry it... I havent finished mine yet but I covered it with some carbon fiber vinyl as the base

Or I believe some vendors sell just a blank polished or chrome plate and you can add anything you want to make it yours.

This is another one I made , but I cleared it and don't like the results. It's just an example of the endless ones you could make. I like to be different, so I like making my car my own as much as I can tastefully. (no comments from the peanut gallery) If you don't know what my stickers are they are from one of my all time favorite shows and movies "Firefly and Serenity" !!!!!

If you're looking for just a plate to start with, I have several stainless steel spare plates laying around. I can send you one if you'd like.
