Well good news guys, I just got off the phone with the guy in charge of printing the medallions. He was super nice and is all for helping us out since he's a car guy himself and he even suggested if we wanted to have a small section in the medallion to make them personalized and unique to each...

An email with the previous questions mentioned here has just been sent. Awaiting response and will update you with more accurate info once I get an answer.

My response was to Neveready and the link he posted with the cheaper Etsy coin printing. I wasn't talking about our original plan. However, I did try to call the "team" today to make sure about the plastic piece and they didn't pick up so hopefully I can confirm that the plastic piece comes with...

this is actually a great idea for the price but the problem is there is a little plastic piece attached to the bottom of the medallion with a pattern that sets in and screws into the shifter as shown in the instructional YouTube video I previously posted. So how would we get the coin to attach...

I'll call them and find out what they need.

Sure I can try to see who has one and ask them.. but I'm confused why we would even need to do that since we are not copying the 120th exactly and not including the shift pattern.. I already made the logo wouldn't we just need the diameter of the medallion and we just center the logo I made as...

This was the best image I could find of the 120th.

The The forums were shut down all week that's why I said we're back in business. "The man" doesn't want us to have nicer shift medallions! 😜 Anyway I'm ready to move forward with an official proposal with the logo me and @rubberduck agreed upon as long as I know at least 5 people are officially...

So looks like we're back in business..

I only spoke to someone who works in their front office and told me I would have to submit an official proposal to get an accurate price but she said off the top of her head it would be north of $1000 for 5 pieces.

Sounds good. But remember it's 3d printed high grade stainless steel won't be too cheap. I would say rough estimate expect maybe $250 a piece for 5ppl maybe less if we can get 10ppl.

Just made a bunch of phone calls and have a few family members that live in Michigan. I've been looking for the 120th medallion way before I found this thread I think it looks awesome.. so are we ok with getting close to the original design? I need at least 5 to 10 people on board or it's just...

What backstory? The cars we own obviously do not have an original Blackwing engine. I'm not disagreeing with you on that. The ct6v doesn't even come in a manual and a 1930s engine probably maxed out at 35 mph. These new logos were designated to our cars by the marketing team or engineers or...

They all have the same logo. I literally just looked up 2 different individual models that have been sold and they both have the same exact shift knob logo. https://www.bjmotors.biz/2023-cadillac-ct5-v-blackwing-120th-anniversary-edition-c-13867.htm

They are very similar but the older logo has the smaller crown on top which I really like. I actually like it a lot especially the draft 2 version and if it were completely up to me I'd still throw in a shift legend. I thought the whole purpose of this thread was to get close to the 120th...
