Dam real expensive if you just want a couple of parts (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif)
10 or more is pretty good though http://www.bigbluesaw.com/saw/index.php?op...%20copy.png.dxf |

Think I'm gonna get this made. Hope it's gonna fit. Think I measured fairly well. If anyone sees a issue let me know.
For the opening in the fiberglass bumpers. Rivet them into place and the other opening are for VW size side markers. Attached image(s)

Then see how it all fits. I will probably order 10 of them since it's only a few more dollars. Who knows once I get it on someone may want one. |

test part HAHA
I realized I made the rivet holes 3/8 instead of 3/16. Rest looks alright though. Attached thumbnail(s)

Hi,
Simon from Big Blue Saw here. A couple of suggestions: - Since you are making the part from a GIF instead of a CAD file, double check that the dimensions given for the part are correct. Measure your test printout to make sure that it's 4 inches by 5.389 inches. - If this is a part that is ordinarily visible, and you want to make it look extra good, I recommend using polished 3003 aluminum instead of 6061 aluminum. Just add a note to the order that you want the shiny 3003 aluminum. It'll be the same price.
