    hi fellow tacoma addicts!!! lol i was hoping somebody with a 3D printer here can help me with this... i really like the TRD PRO emblem on the driver and passenger doors and i was wondering if someone here can help me make one but instead of it saying TRD PRO, i want it to say TRD SPORT. willing to pay for it.

    Who knows others might want this as well then this ill be a kick start to your new business! =)

    thanks in advance! =)

    Make your own- go to https://www.tinkercad.com/, design it for free, then order it. You can even do it in metal, but in metal costs $$. They have 3D printing and laser cutting services too. I think your lettering would work best laser cut instead of printed.

    It's definitely possible just a lot work to get it right. If you look at some of my posts you'll come across the grille emblem that I designed and 3d printed. That was a simple design but sanding, painting, etc. puts a lot of extra time into the process.

    I'm not sure something like the TRD Pro emblem could be laser cut. I took a look at a picture and the base of it is curved then has the letters protruding from that; as far as I know laser cutting can't make those kind of features.

    Well that would certainly make things easier. Here are some pictures, working on updating my build thread to put a lot of my projects in one spot.
