Patrol Badges

Post by DZME »

Hi All

Not sure if this is the right place to post this but I recently had my Patrol badges re-chomed from A Class Metal Finishers in Lonsdale, SA. The finshed product came out like brand new and I am hoping it will stay that way for years to come. :D

Just thought I'd share in case anyone else was looking to do the same. The badges are plastic and A Class Metal Finishers are one of the few places in Australia that can chrome plastic. :dance:

Nice! I always thought the plastic badges were trash once they became dull, this is great to know. Those looks awesome. :clap:

Sure Swerve. Here they are on my G60. I used 3M emblem tape to secure them to the truck. :D

They look great. I priced doing this a few years ago but just couldn't justify the huge cost. Was the place in SA reasonable?

A bit pricey but worth it i think. $77.00 inc gst per badge. :shock: Get it done once but, get it done right. The badges were so bloody heavy when I got them i know that they are gonna last. :D
