Re: Differential covers

Yes...rememebr the picture you are looking at now is not finished.

I am not sure what the cost would be to be powdercoated, chromed, or painted.

I know you can paint it, I know you can chrome it...but I don't think aluminum can be powdercoated????

Aluminum can be powder coated, we do it all the time for aluminum commercial storefront window frames and doors.

Re: Differential covers

See..I learn something every day...I initially had thought it was the iron content...but aluminum is used for electrical too...guess I got my magnetism mixed up with electrical conductivity.

Re: Differential covers

After much deliberation....we are going to produce these diff covers. I funded the company we just formed..... and the artist is producing even more designs and they are crazy.. he was working on a pit bull design yesterday.

We will be in Cass AR for the Rocktoberfest and I just booked a booth for SEMA (November). We are going full bore.

Look for Zingology in the very near future.

Cheers,

Tim

Re: Differential covers

I agree...however...we will need to make some money first before we can afford to purchase the license to use brand logos.

It certainly is part of our plan.

Re: Differential covers

well.. for dodges (which is a huge market for diff covers right now)
you buddy can come up with a pissed off ram!...
jsut my two cents.. there's always loop holes as long as you dont duplicate the exact you are fine =-)

oh well.. just looking out.. remember me when you hit the big time dude!

also a snake head would be easy compared to the pumpkin...
just dumping ideas at you
or! (this just poped into my mind...)
"HELP" upside down! so when you are rolled over! hahhaa just like those jeep guys have the "hey if you can read this"

and then you have the typical flames/tribal stuff..

make sure every one of your items has your website addy next to it, or stuck on it in those pictures. I would put a watermark accross all of them on your site too.

very cool product, how about a nice rear end like this? or maybe a G-string diff cover, seroiusly..

BTW,that pitbull looks killer...
