Custom Car Emblems!!! All Must See!

(Admins/Mods, could you please move this to the Group Buy section, and post it as an announcement, seeing as it applys to so many different models and is such a great deal. Thanks)



Ok, so right now I am talking with a company (AutoBadges.com) that makes custom emblems for cars. I'm getting all the information on what they will cost and at what point price breaks are. The badges would be a basic design, and blend well to look like they are stock.

The emblems will be Laser Engravable Exterior grade plastic. Unlike most which are just plastic made from a die. They will be brushed aluminum to match the stock emblems.


So who would be interested in some custom emblems for their car?



Here are some designs. Vote on which one you like for your model. In order to get the best price possible, we have to narrow it to one design for the V6, and one for the I4. (Sorry, this excludes people with 2vz, 3mz, and 3s-fe.)



Choose one, and the one for each engine with the most votes (in the poll) will be the ones we will have made up.


Update:
The prices are as follows: Under 5 Emblems Standard Price($55USD) Over 5 emblems ($15USD!). We are getting a great deal on these guys, so I hope a lot of you jump in on this!

Everyone who is interested, Please PM me with your shipping information and which emblem you would like to buy (I will take care of the money later this week).

Updates!

I like the last one.. V6/3.0L looks neat. Would it be easy to remove the stock "V6" lettering and put this instead?

Yup. Heat it up with a hair dryer and then slide a piece of string behind it. Add new adhesive and your set



Make sure to vote in the poll everyone! That is what i will be going on, not posts!

hey everyone this GP would be going through my company. If you have any questions I will be more than happy to answer them. We usually specialize in mustang emblems, but are trying to expand to every other type of automobile out there and are willing to give the best deals possible to get the name more out there

the idea of the V63.8L emblem that we already make is here:

How about those same badges but instead of those ordinary lettering, why not use lexus style lettering. I like the last one best.

could you match the font and color of the stock emblems, and do the last one? that's what i'd like. i didnt shave my emblems cause i want to keep the stock look, thats why

or another suggestion i have, is sell each piece of the emblem seperately? that way people can like mix and match which emblems they want. if that's possible, i'd like to only get the 3.0L badge from the last one

Good idea to make badges, no offense, but the designs shown don't look like they belong on a camry.

Have you looked at making a Scepter badge, or a 220 badge like they use in Europe for the 5sfe and 300 for the V6?

Yup! The badges will match stock size (1" heigh) and font. I believe I stated that in the first post but I might have forgotten to. They will be brushed aluminum just like the stock emblems too.

The emblems are all one piece emblems. You can see on their site www.autobadges.com. That's what they will look like. The lettering being close together.



Keep in mind people that the examples displayed above are just quick chops I put together. They are not the exact font and color of the finished product. The final product will blend to look like stock badges.

Check the last paragraph of my post above
The final product will look stock.


I kind of wanted to stay away from them saying Scepter (Also because our cars aren't Scepters) and Camry because that is not stated in the stock emblems. It's on the center piece. So it would be a little weird having it on there twice, or having "Scepter" And "Camry" on there. I wanted to leave it at these because they apply to more than just Camrys. they also apply to the MR, ES300, 4Runner, Lexus trucks, Celica, etc. So these allow for everyone to get them.

well if you wanted a camry emblem you could just get one off a gen4 or gen5 right?

thanks for clearing up the look on the drawings smoking tires, i wasnt aware that the pics up top are just sketches. i'd be down for the v6 3.0L design badge. i think it would look nice on the front quarterpanel a little forward of the front doors

Do you think u can make the "2.2L" in "2.2L 5SFE" looking like the "3.0L" in the last one? and keep them as a 2 piece, so people can have a choice of 5sFE 2.2L or 2.2L 5SFE
