I find myself curious on how you embroider plastic? Is it different than cloth or leather or the same process?

I would like to actually embroider my center console as well. I have the black leather and would like to embroider the SS in orange. I'm going to look into it. If I have luck, I'll let you know!

I was imagining something like the 45th embrodery on the seats, but on the side panels, that was the way I took it.

The dremmel tool got me to thinking, would there be a place that could maybe etch into it designs?

Look up Lupe on here, he has a guy that covers the center console in ultra leather, the sides too.

Ok I spent quite a bit of time digitizeing this font and editing it to look like the SS logo, Please let me know what you think. I tested it out on a piece of pleather to do some tweaking as I go. I did unwrap my console lid and have the leather ready to embroider but want to make sure the font is right before I make a final attempt, I used green so that I could see the detail better but I will be going with a light grey/silver on my leather to match the car.
