thanks
I have acces to a workshop with an engraving-machine, so i did it myself. It's basically a type of black plastic with an aluminum-like surface, so that when you cut through the surface, you get the black text.
I can do them in a variety of colours, but unfortunately there's not any official peugeot colours to choose from
It's mainly solid colours like a plain black with white letters, or black/yellow, yellow/black, yellow/white, red/white and a few more...

I'm struggling to see why though, it's merely a homemade badge to replace a logo.
In my world, it's not any different from having a debagded rear and then putting a sticker in the window.
So if someone doesn't like it, tell me why, please. Speak up

I think you should make some sills and engrave them with team panoramic

I like it. Good job. How much would it cost to have one made and shipped to the uk? Is there a choice of fonts & colours?

Sills... As in doorsills? I think the max. size the machine can do is about 25x25 cm, which is about 9-10 inches

Uhm, not sure.. Gonna have to check up on that. I think maybe 4-5 pounds, everything included.
Regarding colours and fonts, i'll check up next time i'm there. Should be within a few days, i'll drop you a pm when i know
Also, there's 2 types of thickness. This one is the thicker one, and sticks up just a tad. I'd imagine the thinner would be even with the rockercover, but has less choices of colours.

I just checked your posts, and i'll give you that it was a good idea.
The idea has potential, but what came out of your first attempt is just.. ouch :/
I'm sorry, but you can hardly see it reads 206, and the stamped text is not in line etc....
You should post a pic of your new one if it's better!
For any future attempts, i'd cut out the '2' seperately, make the '0' as '()' and '6', well i can't draw what i mean with that in text lol.

Nice idea and it looks good quality and that but im affraid im just not sure on things like this, they just seem a little pointless to me. Dont get me wrong its nice to see something different, i just think the lion looks better but hey thats just my opinion. I think maybe it would look better somewhere other than the center..

Fair play mate, but putting it anywhere else than the center would look way worse, since it wouldn't sit right. The rockercover isn't flat enough anywhere else than where the lion is/was located
