Repainting 64-67 442 emblems

I've never cared for the paint on the 64 -67 442 reproduction emblems. The paint is very much primary colors and has way too much gloss.
I have the paint and it is correct to make any emblems colors look like they should.
So I offer the service of repainting 64-67 442 emblems.

Materials and labor I would think $50.00 per emblem should be about right. I"ll have to charge shipping because of tracking and insurance.
I would redo the customers part.

Mike that Confederate money order ain't cashing.

I know when they 1st started repopping the emblems the colors were off, yellow for the 2 numeral.... When I put together my 67 a few years ago I had a nos emblem and bought 2 others off Ebay which I thought were repop. They were a perfect match to the NOS one I had. Maybe they have improved or maybe I got lucky...

If thats the case I'm out of a job. I haven't seen any reproduction emblems in about a year.
