Default Darksider 'Club' Plaque

I guess a plaque is a integral part of a car, so this would seem to be the place for the thread (apologies, if it isn't). But anyone ever consider an order/run of yet to be conceived or designed Darksider plaques?:

Default fin-heads

I would be interested in some thing like the "Fin-heads" type and size for the old cat, I would like something for the interior of the car? I'm on board, but not much of a designer. Any ideas????????????

Cool Plaque or buckle?

Sound's good to me too. Any chance to do a buckle with maybe an 8 lug?

I will talk to UPC-WU2 (Bill) and the Obrien Truckers folks today and see what a plaque would cost. Remember, the more there are ordered, the lower the per-unit price.

Go this in an email from Obrien yesterday (I'll try to upload the sample):
Thank you for your interest in getting car club plaques made by O'Brien Truckers. We have made over 103,000 plaques for 3000+ clubs all over the world and I'm sure we can make ones for your club too.
For the standard 5" x 9" rectangular plaque, our minimum is just 10 plaques and there is a one time set-up charge of $100. The price for 10 to 24 plaques is $25 each + $10 shipping, for 25 to 49 it's $20 each + $15 shipping, and for 50+ $16.00 each + $30 shipping. These prices are for plaques as cast, bead blasted and ready to finish. If you want them painted and belt sanded (where we paint the plaque one color and belt sand the raised surfaces leaving the paint in the recessed areas and the raised surfaces with a satin finish) that will be $5.00 each extra. The lead time is 6-8 weeks from receipt of your payment.
We require a 50% deposit before we start work on your plaques and we ship your plaques COD for the balance. If you send the full payment with your order naturally you save the $10 COD charge. (offer good in 48 continental states)
We prefer to receive a camera ready black and white artwork with your order where everything that will be raised represented by black and everything recessed represented as white. We only deal in two dimensions - raised and recessed - so we need a pure black and white "line drawing". I've attached an artwork from another club so you can see what we need .
If you have any other questions please feel free to write or call.
Dennis O'Brien

Hey, good stuff, BAB. With the number of DS stickers and shirts that are out there, it shouldn't be any trouble to get > 50 requests.

I agree. I'd take two or three. I have zero artistic talent. It would be great if you could talk with Bill. I could help with the upfront costs, if we had enough in the way of pre-order enthusiasm.

Matt has contacted me. I have the Darksiders logo in a ready-to-roll format that I can supply. Or we can discuss changes.
