Kansas City Tacoma Crew - 816/913

I kinda like that. How did you add them to the headliner? Do you glue them or is there an easy way to add then remove them if you like to transfer them over?

 

Velcro

 

Velcro.

Depending on where you get them, most patches are already velcro backed. If I buy patches without velcro, I buy the velcro and just slap them on the back. Haven't used glue.

 

Guessing you only use one side of the velcro? Didn't know it grabbed onto the headliner like that.

 

Yessir, the hooks grab well in 2nd gens. They still grab on 3rd gens, but little tougher to stay.

 

3rd gens take a little work to get them to stay

 

Literally this

 

Haha, I kinda do the same for extra measure.

 

Have you ever had custom patches made? I'm thinking of designing something, I just don't know what. I love designing badges and seals, and I think patches would be really similar.

 

No, but I've been wanting to do some patch designs myself. I just hear it is a bit pricey? I'd design the areas of the places I go on my trips, essentially. Like for National Seashore, the beach, a firepit, seaturtles, and a taco. I even have a group/patch name I'd use.

 

I am decently skilled in CAD and Adobe Illustrator and pricing looks to be common in batches of 100. It seems like prices are around $1.00 per patch to over $1.50 depending on what you want. I haven't found pricing for less than 100 yet, but let's talk 2FE patches with @Sociopenguin

EDIT: I found pricing for less than 100 3" patches. It's not worth it lol. Like $16+ each if you want less than 10.

 

Yeah, I heard good quality can be $200ish, not sure if they also handle velcro backing as well which could explain that price.

I'm a ok to decent pencil artist and I got some ideas of designs. @gasparic104 is amazing in many forms though. Once my truck looks somewhat comparable to Devil Penguin, I'm commissioning her for an artwork of my truck like she made for DP.

 

Uh, hey, psssst... Anybody wanna buy a 2017 4x4 non TRD for under $14k?

I feel like something is off, or this person didn't get the memo about taco prices.

 

I emailed them. Gotta see what's up with this

 

The one pic makes me immediately think it's sketchy.

 

Multiple systems crashing at work.

2 more hours of nothing till I'm off.

 

I'd like to know as well. No time like the present to make a few grand just by relisting a truck.

 

My thoughts exactly...

 

ive been wanting to get a custom one of a buddy of mines truck with the date he passed on but have yet to actually get it done
