well after a small discussion got started in a thread in the swap and sell i have decided to start this thread for us to post out custom faceplates, tell a little bit about them, and discuss tips and tricks on making them.

as soon as i make some more i will post pics

Cool, should be interesting. What do you use for the paper that you make them from?

i used hp premium paper 35 weight 98% white paper, obtainable through office supply houses, i bought an electric (heated) laminator from wal-mart(25.00) and then the laminating sleeves (i do not remember how much theses were but it was between 7.00 and 15.00. by doing it this way you can use pics from the entenet or your family photos. basically and picture or design you can get into the computer. i would like to see others homade faceplates.

is it just attached to the outside or is it installed in some special way?

hey if your looking for some hot faceplates check out some of the examples on www.vinyltrix.com

after you size it and print it, you seal it in the laminating sleeve and then trim it from the laminate sleeve.

tres leonard does, in my opinion, some of the best faceplates around. although he is currently not taking orders because of some weather problems he has experienced. you can chack out his site at www.tresleonard.com. some of the guys that i raced with have gotten some awsome faceplates done for all kinds off different chargers

I didn't want to hi-jack the thread. As I wanted to see some of the ones others have made also....

I don't do this as a biz...
It's a hobby with in a hobby..

So, let's some some "PERSONAL" plates... :-)

tres i have no question about your work, i guess that there aren't many people out there who make there own faceplates. i am working on another and i have one i just finished, i will post pics of them as soon as i can.
