You might want to try some of the local trophy shops in your area. Just take the picture to them and they might be able to match it for you. It does look pretty awesome.

Hey RTKilla,

I've contacted these guys as well
http://www.billetandacrylic.com/main.htm

no price quote yet, but he said they have the Ford Script for my version of that fuel door already, and that the block letters on mine for the '100 YEARS' shouldn't be a problem...The only thing was to make sure that the fuel door was flat....has to be a flat surface for them to engrave I guess? If it's not, I'm gonna try and contact the engravers posted above as well.

I can do it. I have a CNC machine. I would need an outline file in vector format like dxf, autocad, etc. Send me some picks of the back side of the plate, so that I can think about the fixture. I have bits that go down to 1/64th of an inch, but I don't think that I would want to go down smaller that 1/8th inch. (those bits are real expensive). It wouldn't be engraved, but CNC cut! Now that I look at the pics I can probably go pretty small with the "side angled" as the pics kind of show.

Sorry, I originally posted this in the wrong spot.

Air1kdf,

can you send me an email to bartraboin@yahoo.com, so that we can find out how much it'd cost for you to do something like this? Thanks.
