Custom Grill Badge

Does anybody know where I can get a custom grill badge? I did a few searches & didn't come up with much...

I'm fairly certain that Cooper Flags will make custom grill badges, though I'm not sure what that may cost.

All you need is a sheet of magnetic stuff, some sharpies, and some artistic abilities and you can make as many as you want. Or Cooper Flags I beleive will do them if you email them, ask nicely, and pay them some money

Yeah CooperFlags has a great product. Its 100x stronger than a magnet sheet you can buy at the store. They ink doesn't fade much at all over the years either. Ask for Christian. He did my clubs badges and he is great to work with. Tell him the Aggieland Mini Club referred you!

If you want a one of a kind badge, it is not going to be cheap. If you need a bunch, as for a club, the unit cost won't be so bad. In addition to Cooper Flags, you might want to talk to Mike at Aesthetic Creations.

CooperFlags is definitely a good source for one offs. I had them do a couple for me. iirc, they run $15 per badge for one offs. Considering that it is nearly impossible to get anyone else to do single badges and most places are going to charge you artwork fees and stuff, while high compared to quantity badge costs, I think the CooperFlags price is a fantastic deal.

IMO, that's incredibly cheap.

Is that price assuming you provide the completed artwork?

You've just gotta supply the completed artwork for that price.

In my case, I supplied the artwork. Not sure what kind of charge you might have if they provide some artwork services for you.

That's more like it... Not much more expensive than regular badges, but far nicer looking.

Their website doesn't work...you can select badges but there is not way to add them to a shopping basket and complete a purchase.

I see that you have responded on two different threads with a link to their website. Do you work for them?

The badges are incredibly beautiful and I can not wait when they are available outside the USA. Until then I must sadly wait ... hopefully not forever
@ dkang99: Are you planning to send it to Europe in the future?
