Businesses are supposed to be profitable.....whatever the profit margin is....I don't have the time, nor a friend with a plotter to donate his time. Cost is so negligible at $30.....I didn't mind. But to each his own.

I understand and to a certain point, agree. But when I see fellow CL'ers get ripped off for a 90%+ profit margin, it's a bit depressing. One of the reasons I entered the auto industry not too long ago, was to stop people from getting taken advantage of. So if y'all are serious about wanting this, let me know and I'll get my company to plotting at a much more reasonable cost. I just think that the car community's dynamic has shifted too far from helping each other grow and more to making a quick buck...

It's about $3 worth of product (max).
Go find a friend with a cutter/plotter and buy some reflective vinyl...
That involves going out to try to replicate the same product. That reasoning could be applied to alot of things you spend money on. Nike shoes probably cost less than a dollar to make. I just bought the OEM black pearl emblem, that probably costs a few dollars to produce as well, but its much easier to just buy it.

For me, I purchased it on impulse. $30 is a lot but convenient versus me trying to source the material, having it cut, and so on. Plus I blow $30 on stupid random stuff anyways.

So we have some choices to make here. We can pull up our pants and act like adults, or I can close this thread with extreme prejudice. Up to you guys. I am watching.
