Devil Horns Emblems

Shipping them both ways won't justify my costs. I'll just refinish them on my own but had I known of the Fade issue I would have taken preventative measures then. Live 'n Learn I guess.

 

If I had to guess all in all it's about $30 - $35 to refinish them
This includes shipping, anodize, small fee to do the work

 

Yea, I agree Andres! We each must assign a maximum value we are willing to pay for the things we want. Especially when it comes to custom pieces like the Devil Horns. I use to be big into Harley Davidson's. Milled aluminum work was some of the most expensive stuff I had ever seen. So for me, the cost of the Devil Horns was not surprising. Don't get me wrong, there is no money tree in my back yard either. I just remember when I joined the forum and saw them on Chads truck. I knew I had to have one for mine. It was a Christmas present from the wife to me.

As I said originally, it is my fault they got the way they are. I should have clear coated them to prevent the fading from the salt. A friend of mine said it was likely more the sun. I would like to see a picture of someones out in Texas , California or New Mexico where they have a real issue with the sun. @ChadsPride what about a pic of yours so we can compare them to mine?

But some work on my part or not. Cost to me to have them redone or not. No way was I going to let them stay faded. It just completely changes the look. I want them to be vibrant, not dull. So this time around I put in some work. No different than any other mod I have done. Hell, it took me nearly 6 or 7 hours to bolt my sliders up myself. It took me all day, at least 8 hours to plastidip mt grill for the emblems. Yes my time is very valuable and in short supply but it is what it is.

I like the Devil Horns on Fire on my truck and to me they are worth it.

 

Oh yeah I almost forgot.
So the anodize used on Horns on Fire is quite an art to do.
This is not something they do all the time, it takes plenty of practice and a good sense of timing in order to get the colors just right.
I include a completed anodized emblem for them to compare it against with hope that they match the same colors.
I can't go too hard on them if they don't get the colors just right, like I said it's almost an art to get these colors to blend just right. ​

 

Right, I remember you saying this two years ago Andres. Why I asked that if it was possible to go heavier on the orange and less on the yellow and red that would be my preference. With the truck being Inferno, there can not be too much orange in the mix. On other color trucks though, a lot of orange might be too much.

If they can, they can, if not then fine. I will be happy either way.

 

Lol, I'm in Canada. Shipping alone is prohibitive.

 

any idea if these would fit a 2003 camry?

 

Yea, shipping for you would suck Edward. I get that for sure.
Should be under 8 bucks one way for me.

 

Oh yeah, you have a point there.
= /

 

With enough glue, absolutely!!!

Naaa, don't listen to me. check out the sizes on the site here:

oh nice! is the T.H.R.B. compatible with HC bumpers?

 

I have not made any emblems specifically for the Camry brother.
If you provide me with the width of your emblem I can suggest something close in size.
You can make it fit easily.
PM the width of the emblem, pictures help.

 

ah don't sweat it this is just my daily driver or as @ChadsPride said "the grocery getter" I have the TRD pro faux grill on my taco, these are just so dang cool. I do however have a grill craft full mesh grill that I would be interested in putting one of these on it... do you have any recommendation on what size I should use?

 

THRB attaches to the factory tow hitch, there are two threaded holes for that.
If you are able to retain your factory tow hitch with your HC bumper then yes.

I can think of one simple solution, you could drill two small holes to your HC bumper and attach THRB onto it.
You may need to purchase two separate screws at your local hardware store, they're 1/4"-20 thread you'll need to figure out how long you'll need those screws.
If you need further explanations please send me a message.

 

Heads up @Andres

 

These are awesome! Has anyone put them anywhere other than the grill? I’m thinking of mounting it on my tail gate with 3m...but I am sure it would disappear.
I see the installation uses bolts, might be able to bolt it into the tailgate assuming I wouldn’t mind drilling into the tailgate??
Any thoughts??

 

You could mount it on your hitch with a hitch bracket.
Is the surface of your tailgate curved?

 

These are aluminum and not as light as you might think. I am sure 3M tape would hold under normal use but as you said, they might wind up missing. Also, I would be afraid of bouncing around with them just stuck on.
