Third shift studios, you will have to email them for Hawk specific stuff.

Do they paint them too ?

AFAIK none of them are painted.

From TSS: "The gray areas will be brushed aluminum, which will look engraved because the black powder coat surrounds the whole plate. The swoosh over the "Firehawk" is a piece of vinyl"

Here is the concept they did for me, I made a few changes but haven't gotten it yet. I am getting a catch can, so I want to make sure that I will still be able to see it.

Not painted.

I made a lot of those & most of them were indeed painted to match the car colors.
The SOM & NBM were especially nice lookin' plates with matching decals to the cars.

I used the same quality paint used on the cars themselves which was rated to 400F.
I did that for many years as hobby work & most all of the work was simply word of mouth referrals.
I don't have a count for how many were made, but as a small hobby thing, it was really only done to help others who didn't have the means of making the plates or covers themselves. It was mostly pride of workmanship & seeing the people satisfied with the end product that had me making them. I never went advertising them, & continually had people in contact for another set over & over.
I hate to say it, but my real job is 'sales', ..., so helping others & getting the joy of ownership in a favorable 'job well done' is all the satisfaction one needs.

Too bad that the one online photo album that I had a ton of photos on, had folded last year, as there were a lot of good photos there.
This is the only active online photo album that I have any more;

Nice work! So what your here is that you may be interested in making some more of these?

Thanks, ..., but No, not interested in making any more. Sorry, ...
The main problem is that I'd have to buy a dozen or more plates from the local shop that I used as a resource.
I do not have any left-over at this time.
And that is not worth it just to sell one more plate.
