Valve Cover Customizing (PLan on being a vendor is anyone interested)

Just want to know if anyone will be interested before i become a vendor


Here is my valve cover i finished

http://tinypic.com/opacg7.jpg
http://tinypic.com/opbdc4.jpg

colors i have already are

red,black,white, and yellow i will be posting more but keep it in mind. i just got a new machine i am going to test it out sometim this week and i will get back to u guys when i am a vendor. I also will have some pictures posted of the color on products.






IF YOU ARE INTERESTED PLEASE PM ME

Valve cover is warranty for one month if you scratch the valve cover we are not responsible every valve cover that leaves here will be inspected so dont lie. If you scratch it i will redo for less money.

Become a vendor before you start selling, you already know about this.
Post up the prices, how long it will take to get things powder coated.
How shipping process will be handled.

powder coat is the only way to go. If you wanted to impress people you shouldve done something more eye grabing then silver. Dont get me wrong it still looks nice but i can do the same with 3 cans of spray paint...

well ill speak for him since he left and i told him about the hole process and im also going to be getting into it also.

what he told me is he just ordered the setup

shipping i would say would be DHL becuase there the cheapest and there acually better and faster then Ups.

soon as the item are in possesion and as long as theres not alot of things to do i would say 3-4 days top to sandblast then paint and bake.

My setup wont be ready until around may but i know hes gonna be doing things sooner

i cannot quote a price being im not him nor do i know how much material would cost.

What do you guys think would be a fair price for a valve cover? Let him know give suggestions and what not

as for vendor membership hes not gonna sign up till he knows people deff want them.
