I got one of the Australian Flying Hood Emblems from Paul. They are neat from 20 feet, but up close look like crap- all kinds of grind marks all over the base and wings, and around the emblem, just chromed over- finish work on this is horrible. the wings were unevenly ground. this piece is not something id consider for a show car, you wont be happy.

I also bought one of the light up D badges, which was a very nice piece, however the stainless steel brackets to hold it up were also poorly finished, with angled ends which should be simple square brackets.

hopefully the quality gets better as some of the accessories they are reproducing are pretty cool, just not being reproduced well sadly.

I bought the stainless hinge covers. Fast shipping & I'm happy with the quality. They look great, but I have not installed them yet.

Buying a Rock and Roll Bed from Paul was a pleasure. Quality stuff and really fast delivery, plus a perfect description and communication made this a perfect transaction.
Thanks again.

Tried to buy and they won't respond to me. On their website everything is in English Pounds. They just lost a customer. Why put an ad if your're not going to repond? Evil or Very Mad

Just received my metal letters. Shipping from UK to CA was 4 days and unbelievably cheap. Well packed. And so well fitted in a tiny box that I thought there would be another box coming. Get these before they realize what a bargain they are and raise the price!
Thanks for a great product at a fair price, well packed and shipped in a more than timely manner. I have bookmarked your site.

I purchased the rocket emblem. It arrived safe to my home in Montana. I would have liked to have seen it cast better but the flaws in the emblem are shown in the pictures. Overall I am happy with the service and the product. My car is nice but it isn't a show car so the emblem will fit in nicely. I would do business with him again.

Hi Guys

Just to let you know the Rocket emblem is one of the few items that is produced with sand casting so it is never going to be a precision made item, as can be seen in the photos.

95% of all our other accessories we invest heavily in tooling to produce the highest quality accessories you can get.

The Rocket emblem is not really fair representation of our products - in fact we stopped supplying it previously but continually got asked for it so bought it back so we will keep available for now.

I also have a set of 356 grills from this company. They are very nice. My emblem came with some pin up girl stickers and air freshener which was a nice bonus. Like I said I am happy with my emblem. It's a good price as well. I looked at the pictures and saw the casting marks, so I knew to expect them. Hope you didn't think I was trying to be rude or anything like that. Just some people might not notice in the pictures that its sand cast and not 100% perfect. Still I'm glad to have it vs an over priced original one that is pitted and what not lol. Thanks again, I'm sure I will be buying a couple more things from you in the future.

Hi

Yes it was clear to me you are a happy customer so thanks for that, much appreciated Very Happy

I was just trying to emphasize that our other products are not made in the same way as the sand cast emblem.

We really do push to make the very best quality you can get and also uncommon items so we hope you all approve of our unique accessories Smile

cheers!
