Hi Sol, in regards to my previous post, we polish BEFORE anodizing. Polishing after would only muck up the ano. Again, we polish before ano. Two TOTALLY different looks between non polished ano and polished ano.
never run out of asphalt, brake, or real estate at the same time!!

Lil NDN, as far as marking the engraved section in red. When we anodize the part and then laser engrave the anodize, the laser basically 'bleaches' the anodize. It doesn't remove the anodizing or get to bare aluminum. It just turns the anodizing white. You really can't 'fill in' the graphic like say a body emblem. Just want to make sure you were aware of that.

I think I'm going to jump in on this now too. I sent you an email with the custom graphic. Thanks.

Thanks Helios, I'm excited for you guys to get these. Very cool and personal mod that is reasonably priced. I have polished ones in stock to send to anodizers this week. If anybody else wants red, let me know now. The turn around time on anodizing is a week or two.
