    A quick question. I have seen the various cutout letters for the Satoshi Grilles with some people doing a Raptor style "TACOMA" or "TOYOTA" in the grille.
    Has anyone ever done the traditional TEQ letters in that style? Letters that can be mounted to the mesh? I'm just curious...

    I have the Land Criuser letters on currently, if I get sick of that, I'll throw this one on.

    yes, I've seen the TEQ Badges, and I like them. I was hoping someone had tried to cut the individual "letters" in the Raptor style. I think it might be interesting looking on a mesh grille.

    I'd love to, but I have NO experience at fabricating ANYTHING like this, and I'd just make a botch of it! Surely SOMEONE out there that has the cutting equipment can get the image and enlarge them to set up the saw, or however the letters are fabricated...

    I would think a lazer jet would be the best cutting option. The cleanest anyway. A plasma cutter would take a lot of cleaning of the edges. I might give it a shot if I can get my bro in law to hook me up with it. I also think some places like bamf do custom lettering to
