Either way, I think the best quality to price ratio would be a small, engraved aluminum plaque.
I've done the research. The OEM stock trim is plastic with an aluminized finish on top. The "year 1" piece is also plastic with the aluminum finish as well. If you know of a way to get a stamped aluminum trim piece for less that will also clip into the start button properly by all means get-er-done. Tell me where to send the money?

SIGH.... I thought the OP of the thread was quite clear and made no mention of plaques.
