Help with making Metal engraved Name Tag

[Imperialknight]

I have been researching and hunting down the correct Top Gun Pins for these "Top Gun " name plates, seen on Tom Cruise's uniform in the Movie. I have the pins on hand I just need to have the Brass name Plates made and engraved. Can anyone here help me out? Thanks in advance. Pic below of the name plate. On the name plate is PETE MITCHCHELL, TOP GUN 1.

If you have any friends in the military, this should be easily done by the local base's clothing sales store.

You could probably get any one of the several laser engraver guys on the board to do one up for you cheaper than having a commercial place do one.

Yes, hopefully someone here can lend a helping hand. I will even go with Plastic that looks like Brass.

I was in the Navy for 22 years and during that time plastic nametags were the norm. The one you are showing looks to be black plastic with a brushed brass laminate.

Try contacting Jmtwo or WynnStudio.

Looks like the brass nameplate we wear on our police uniforms. Try looking up a police uniform store and ask if they do the brass nameplates. They have them at where we get ours, and they are pretty inexpensive. Also, try an online/mail order police supply company called Gall's.
