    I've ordered the TOYOTA emblem. It wont get installed until I find a painted grille, but It'll be nice to have it around. I am not against getting a T emblem as well... The both sound like fun projects, and i'll have two grilles :D

    FYI, part number for the emblem is
    $60 75311-90K00 7531190K00
    75311-90K00. It's from an 84-87 Landcruiser aparently.

    I really like the TOYOTA lettering. Already looking into getting some letters for my grill, but kinda hanging on to see what happens with inserts. I don't want to hack up my truck just yet...

    I like the TOYOTA lettering on the Satoshi. But Barlowrs' emblem is a super sweet alternate to the stupid Toyota factory badge.
    BTW... I hate the devil horns look.

    Like the old school TOYOTA so much I put it on the rear too!

    I like the Toyota Truck's T emblem and it looks like if someone wants one, they have to have one made?

    I think either the FJ T O Y O T A or the T emblem would look great on a Satoshi grille on a 2012, at least thats my plan anyway.

    I'm a fan of the Toyota lettering in the Satoshi. Looks the cleanest, IMO.

    yeah, but the total time and money into it would not be cost effective, no-one would pay for it. I could probably do it cheaper in mass production, but I also like being the only one, or one few, that have it.haha:D

    I personally like the FJ look, but I don't trust myself to do a satoshi. I also don't want to spend the $300 +- to get one
