Cost is based on stitch count. I have a small Brother machine set up in the loft and I managed to buy a Porsche logo pattern on line that came on a CD. it was about £5. my machine is pretty basic but made a nice job pf a polo shirt. so a professional embroidery machine should do a great job. If the bag company cant do it in house, you could try asking them for a piece of material from the intended bag with a pencilled outline of the part pattern on it and take this to an embroidery specialist to get the logo stitched on where you want it to end up on the finished bag then return it to the manufacturer for assembly My mum has a very expensive sewing machine. The edge thingy I bought for her birthday cost twice what a regular sewing machine costs and this was an attachment. If you could send me the file I could get her to knock one up on her machine and take a look at the quality. Does it tell you what colours are needed. Can you get threads in Pantone?!

garytipping Posted March 13, 2018 Share Posted March 13, 2018 I've spoken to Bag-World, and been given a personnel email address for the owner. I've emailed asking what he needs to give us a price. If he needs to see a car, anyone around Reddich? Cheers Gary Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
garytipping Posted March 13, 2018 Share Posted March 13, 2018 I've had an email back from Bag-World, they have said they'll call me tomorrow. Might come to nothing, but worth an enquiry. Cheers Gary Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post garytipping Posted March 15, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted March 15, 2018 Hi All, I've spoken at length to Bag-world, and sent some photos and dimensions. The boss there is Colin Surman and can be contacted on 01527 592333 or colin@bag-world.co He is suggesting a pair of vertical standing 'cases' for the front compartment, similar to those shown in the McLaren section of their web site, and a pair of shallow cases that would lay flat in the rear compartment, and possibly a matching suit bag to lay on the engine cover. budget price for a full 5 piece set would be £420.00. (around double that if anyone fancies leather) The above budget would be in a vinyl with contrasting piping and can be personalised with embroidered names or car model, He's happy to sew on Porsche badges if the buyer supplies them. he buys his vinyl from www.macflex.com and likes the Tavira range. His leather is from www.inlep.com. each set can be a different colour/ finish to match individual cars. I have no connection with Bagworld, I've just seen their products. He suggests if anyone wants to go ahead, that we take a car in for final measurement. I'm happy to do that unless anyone is around Redditch. Have a look at the Bag World web site, and the material suppliers, he said he's happy to send swatches. Let me know what you think.

garytipping Posted April 4, 2018 Share Posted April 4, 2018 Sorry Graham, missed this post. I've not done any more with it as yet, going to get my car inspected next week and see if there are any more urgent things to do first.

Simon Walker Posted April 28, 2018 Share Posted April 28, 2018 I’m up for a set. If this moves along further Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
graham.reeds Posted April 28, 2018 Author Share Posted April 28, 2018 I am more likely to plump for the canvas set as that will match my car. ? Less important now as I no longer work in London. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
garytipping Posted April 29, 2018 Share Posted April 29, 2018 Hi All, I'm happy to get in touch with them again and get some swatches if that will help. Let me have some colour clues. Cheers Gary Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
graham.reeds Posted April 29, 2018 Author Share Posted April 29, 2018 White with black piping. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Simon Walker Posted April 30, 2018 Share Posted April 30, 2018 Are we talking about the bagworld ones or the original Montrose set? I like both nut tbink the latter more cost effective for me...I’d go with black or grey black! Even better if we can get the Porsche crest. Quick browse thru the site and althoughi haven’t got a tape measure out I think can also get almost fitted for front & back trunks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
