    They start @ $50. Let me know what you need and ill see if i can make it. They can get involved, some having 4 layers.

    I can make it for the grill, tailgate, fenders etc.

    These are pretty strong and indestructable. Ive left them outside in the hot fkorida sun with no issues. unlike 3d printing, this material isint welded together, its a solid piece thats cut.

    2463ADE6-E4EE-42DC-9CF1-8F7B37214BE2.jpg From looking at the pics some of the edges look rough. Is it an illusion and that the edges are nice and smooth?
    Can you make something like this? How much would it be? Doesn’t need to be in color. I can paint it.
    Thanks,
    Rob

    The edge on the bomb is jagged if you zoom in. This is due to the art work provided, the lines werent fluid in the drawing.
    That TRD you have is done on a blow mold machine so all the curves are perfect. Mine is done on a cnc so all the edges are square vs curved on the blowmold

    Ok. I don’t need the tiny curved raised lips on the edges of the emblem. I basically want the emblem as shown in 2 steps with smooth vertical edges. I can provide a good vector file from cadd or CorelDraw for you to work with. As stated earlier I will paint them myself and want it in plastic. Would you be able to do that?
    Or what about doing the T R D letters separate and the black background one piece? It would be easier for me to paint them and then glue it all together. So 4 pieces total.
    LMK.

    That's where I got my grill. Built it myself by cutting the original up to fit it in place. Love the results!
