I'm down for the Toyota logo. The 86 concept looked good but not that good to me on the production. Seemed too "bubbly and unrefined". The matte finish one is nice though.

I'm not rich and I'm a bit broke btw. But wouldn't mind investing in having them made if I can be somewhat sure I will break even and at least make a little profit.
I think 100 is a safe bet.

Curvature and dome measurements would be great and very helpful too (but I'm pretty sure this would be difficult to get).

Don't have one.. But I really appreciate you trying to design and make us one!

I am still waiting for quotes on the higher quality "hard" emblems with hard plastic and/or metal inside, a hard backing plate and hard clear over (pretty much close to oem). But, I am betting this will be much more since there is an initial cost for design, molds and things, and each emblem produced itself costs a bit much. I am sure I need to price these at $20-30ea for these super high quality emblems.
I rather buy the super high quality emblem.

I wouldn't mind paying $10 - $20 for something that sticks on well, and be looking at it everyday.

Idk...but I tried to email all 4 of their contact emails (to inquire about custom emblems and/or give them suggestions for new emblem designs), and all 4 of them bounced back.

Edit:
n/m....I think there's something worng with my darn email...I got the same "Delivery Status Notification (Failure)‏" trying to email and reply to someone else :/ ...grrrr...anyone know how to fix this? (most off topic question of the year award, lol). And I know that their email works...because they emailed me first and I'm just trying to reply back lol.

I think these are coming in from the states. I got my tracking like the next day. Although no updates on it yet to confirm. The company Loden Emblems who makes it are located in Chicago.


From their facebook for anyone curious "The Black color currently has a processing time of 24-48 hours prior to shipment via USPS. "
