For over a year I toyed with the idea of making new acrylic emblems. YouTube is full of videos of folks making their molds and producing new parts like tail light lenses.
I eventually talked myself out of it when I purchased the two I painted. Someone with some "know-how" might have been able to use that thin gold and silver leaf. I have never used it and would have made a huge mess.

Yes, Emblem Magic is defunct but after she got the business, she was never able to get access to the Website so it has remained static other than a few tweaks that the previous owner did to point some, but not all, of the contact links to her.

I am trying to install the front parking/turn signal fixtures.
Have been searching online for the #10, J-type speed nuts. McMaster & Carr and Restoration Specialties want $30+ in shipping for a small handful of them. I understand that shipping costs money but that is just robbery. I might get some U-types, take my Dremel to one side, and make my own J-type. Just venting.

This is what I ordered,
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B003QSGYHG?psc=1&ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_product_details I fear they will be too large. If you have looked at that area of the car lately then you know how tight a fit these clips are. With my luck, I'll waste more money than if I had just paid the high shipping to the other places. I will let you know when they arrive.
