thinking about a custom badge/emblem

[curtis]

Thinking about replacing some of the badges on my 4Runner to be a little uniqur

What do you all think of this attached layout?

Sorry about the size...I do not have any worthwhile image software here at work.

If it works out, it will be made into something like this:

looks good to me

so it would be a real emblem? (not just a flat sticker)

how much do you think it would cost?

 

[curtis]

yes....a real emblem made of billet aluminum.

Hoping to get it done between $35-$60.

 

[24runners]

well if you get them done...i'll take one

 

[curtis]

Definitely...I will post the cost and find out how many extras I need to have made.

Thanks for the link and the idea. I'll have to think of something for my 4Runner now.

Those really look nice.

 

[JRisner]

Id be in for that also...

I hope I'm not jumping in uninvited but I'd like one of those emblems too...very trick looking.

I should know more in about a week. The guy making them is getting ready for the SEMA show.....and will do mine after he is done with making badges for his customers showing at SEMA.

Just got done sending some EMail back and forth with these guy's with my ideas for my Badge. Great response and seems like they are open to the custom ideas.

Anyone with past experience?

I was refered to them by a friend that has done business with them.

I hope to have my badge knocked out soon.

Great, a referal is always the best ... You will probably get yours done before me so shoot us some pics if you can. Thanks for the Link BTW!

Here is the final CAD rendition of the badge I am ordering. Hope to have it in a few weeks.

Man that looks sweet... What size did you settle on?

 

[curtis]

I am not exactly sure...but the V8 lettering will be 1.25" high.

 

[24runners]

is it a chrome emblem with black lettering? (like your first pic)

or is it a black emblem with chrome lettering?? (the most recent pic)

The finish on the lettering will be like this:

I think it will be a Black Emblem with Painted letters. I'm still working on mine and these guys... "Steve" has been great to work with. That should be how the Badge will look...Would look sweet on a black truck!
