some updates:

i made a few engine bay and body work stickers for my car and my friends car.
We made some of them 1-2mm wider than the originals, this was to cover the marks from the original stickers
i also started making B6 2.7 badges for the Japanese market, so i made the Japanese dealer sticker as well

Hey Jits. It looks jits man. Did you sell any badges to a guy here in Aus by any chance? How did you do the tappet cover? I wouldn’t mind one like that as I am also busy with an Alpina rep build. Shot

thank you.

What's the guys name? Are you talking about Didier?
i sent 5 sets to Australia recently and tappet cover to Didier.

The work on the covers are out sourced. I send a cad design to an engineer, he does some witchcraft on it (after nagging daily for a month or 2) and then i send it for powder coating, once i get it back, i will either sand the letters and lines or send it back to the engineers to get a machine finish.

i should be getting few more covers next month-
Alpina
Mtechnic
BMW Power
F*** ur GTIi

f you want one, let me know.

i made these to fund a few items that i needed:

Tell us more about your combustion chamber shaping. I've been reading a bunch of digger posts and he likes to keep that "shelf" or squish band around the valves. Is it gone or just rounded off here?

it looks like it is an Alpina style hemi thats how they did it in the 80's but it might be an optical illusion due to the angle of photo, there are good reasons why you dont see hemi from the factory anymore from Chrysler or anyone else in anycase.
