Custom Chrome?

Does anybody know if it is possible to get custom chrome lettering? I've seen that several of you have put the vinyle block lettering on your grills. I was thinking of actually get a chrome piece to go there and I want to get a set of HHR emblems that match the lettering style. The pic shows what I have in mind.

I've wandering aimlessly through the internet and not been able to find anything. I've also checked all of the relevant links that CJ posted.

As far as the HHR you are hoping for.....I don't know.

But for the other and many like it I recommend http://www.fillingstation.com/ .
They've got a lot of different scripts, decals and metal. big on-line catalog and if you call Steve is really helpful.

The only place I've seen that does this is:
http://youremblem.com/

I've heard good things about them. One font only, unless something's changed.

Well, the good news is that I found a place that will do it - Motor Head Jewelry. The bad news is that one off pieces start at $400. It will be cheaper to try and cut / paste replicas together.

Yikes!!! Cut and paste sounds pretty good now. Someone also mentioned to about going to a sign shop to see if they have them and would sell the letters separately.

One of the reasons i did my HHR logos i designed on the back as paint
permanent but not a ton cheaper

it was added on when i did the 2 tone so the cost was minimal, about $15 for the peel off masking done at a print shop
