Custom "sticker" for ash tray/power point door
So I took my interior apart this weekend to install insulation to reduce heat in the center console. All went pretty well except the door on the ash tray/power point. I scratched it so bad it looks like a tribal tattoo! Anyone know where I can get the 6oth anniversary flags on a black background that I can put on this piece?
TIA

I scratched mine when installing my nav. Been driving me nuts. I've been wanting to do a spec plate but not sure if it will handle the curve and stick.
You should visit a sign shop that does stickers and have them measure and give you a quote.

If you have a computer and a printer, you may be able to create something in "Word" that you could print onto some paper that has an adhesive backing.
Something like this until you can come up with a better replacement.
There was a guy on the web that made these but he went out of business.

You can buy waterproof printing paper that will not smudgefrom Creative Label concepts. They sell it by the sheet for less than $1.00
I used that paper to make my visor labels. They are super sticky, and look great.

I had this sticker made to fit the ash tray door. It's printed on a thin sheet of aluminum, thin like paper, but I've lost the link for the source, but a vendor here did the printing.

I scanned a little and from what I could see, a new door is only available with a "set" for the ashtray and the set is $100+. And I'm not much of a sand and paint guy ...
So I went with the sticker. I recently ordered these. Once I realized they were a little longer then the visor labels, I decided I would instead try to use them to correct this issue.
So here's a pic of what I ended up with. Thought it turned out ok.
