GMMG REAR BADGES (correct – thick ones)



The Registry has the last two GMMG Rear Badges --- SOLD[/size%;">



If you need a badge for your car contact Jim or Aaron



We will send you a form to sign. When the signed form is returned & payment is made we will ship.







Question:



Why is the Registry making it difficult for me to obtain a badge?



Answer:



The Registry is doing everything in its power to minimize the possibility that anyone can clone a GMMG. This effort is intended to protect the investment of the owners.



If you see or hear of any GMMG clones, please let us know & take a photo if you can.



NOTE: There are 12 badges that have been MIA since summer 2013. The US Post Office lost them. If anyone ever sees GMMG Rear Badges for sale anywhere else please notify JD, Jim or Jim right away.



Thanks for your understanding & ongoing support.



Jim, Aaron & Jim

In an attempt to eliminate “cloning” of our GMMG cars, Mike Carnahan, daytonajim, GMMG BlackBird and myself are in agreement that everyone who has ordered either a set of BlackBird badges or a GMMG badge or badges will need to sign an agreement consenting to “re-sell” these badges back to the GMMG Registry for the original purchase price should they sell the GMMG car or cars that they now own so that these badges won’t be re-sold on E-Bay, Craig’s List, etc. for profit to Non-GMMG car owners. Furthermore, each purchaser will have to agree not to re-sell these badges to anyone other than the GMMG Registry. I will be drafting this letter and emailing it out to each person who has ordered any of these badges. Mike Carnahan has also informed me that he will be numbering each badge and we will record who has each badge. WE WILL REQUIRE THAT I HAVE THE ORIGINAL SIGNED AGREEMENT LETTER BACK IN MY POSSESSION PRIOR TO SHIPPING YOUR BADGES TO YOU.



Daytonajim has run across people trying to duplicate these badges and sell them on E-Bay to people who do not own a GMMG car so that they can “pass” their car off as a GMMG car. I should think that we would all be in agreement on this and want to protect our investments in these cars and preserve their pedigree. As many of you know, when GMMG sold their chambered exhaust, they made a cheap replica of the GMMG logo and sent that with the exhaust (See both photos below. This first photo was taken at a car show in Omaha, Nebraska and the second photo was posted on the 35thLE.com forum board. Note in the first photo that he has painted his tail panel black, has the cheap GMMG vinyl logo, the stainless CAMARO inserts and the Berger Chevrolet license plate frame and below that is another Camaro that has the black tail panel with the stainless "CAMARO" inserts, the Dick Harrell Wide Body rear spoiler complete with the "Mr. Chevrolet" lettering and striping down the side with "Nickey/SC). Many people who purchased the chambered exhaust put this cheap vinyl replica GMMG logo on the tail panel of their Camaros and Firebirds and tried to “pass off” their cars as GMMG cars. Both daytonajim and I have been to car shows where this has happened but when you ask to see their GMMG brass door tag, all of a sudden………..the truth then comes out and the owner will admit that he just has the exhaust and it is not a car that GMMG built.



We hope that everyone here understands our motive behind this requirement and everyone will appreciate that we are trying to preserve the pedigree of all the cars that GMMG built.
