      My dials have no logos, they are 99% OEM.

        Yeah, it would be fairly simplified but I'll see what I can do.

        Cheers for the prototypes on this Kev, I'm chuffed with the results

          Just get a TT one, they look the same and are ally, that design would reguire a few more axis on the CNC to make the curved engraving and off axis drill points.

            Hi Andy, definately up for one of these. Would the 'quattro' logo fit in the space? That's what I would go for if poss?

              I don't think it would, engraving is 1mm cutter so it would all get lost on the 30mm round canvas could do '90q' for you if you like

              I'll have a look at the S2 logo and see where I got to with it, cheers Ken.

                i know, but Ken has the plasma dials with logos on , the gear knob as standard would look ace , not convinced about putting a logo for s2 on it though

                  Ah, fair enough

                  I'll look and see what can be achieved, if it looks anything other than ace then it'll be a no go.

                    Shame... No chance of engraving it around the circumfrence either I suppose....?
                    What about a nice big quattro 'Q'? Shimples..

                      Wasn't it always spelt with a lower case q, quattro?

                      They do look good though, I imagine some great petsonalised stuff could be done with them. I'm more than happy with my leather one, but, would it be possible to fit the Nothelle logo on there?

                        I can have a look at that but it'll be quite difficult. I'll need to sort a price for custom engraving as there is design time and then manufacture time...

                            I've had a look at the two custom ones and have roughed out a design.
