Question Etch this logo on a derby cover?
Hello all,
I'd like to personalize my bike a little, so I was hoping to have my derby cover etched or something to show this patch (attached).

My bike is mostly blacked out, so I want to keep the derby cover black. The only think I would like to change on the image is to not have the 3d look to the lettering on the bottom.

I think having the gray/black/white may be a problem though...

Anyone know someone who can do this, or suggest a way it can be done?
Thanks!

Story 808 does some great engraving just check out the Derby **** thread. The color will be on your own, but that is simple painting.
