Devil Horns Update

Yup its a bit off, without cuttin up the grill it is the closest it will get. I tried for about an hour to get it right. It's either a little to the left or right.

 

I keep getting asked "why are there horns? Does it mean devil or bull??" So I just claim bull because I'm a Taurus

 

I finished mine. The devil horns emblem was held in the bench vise by the bolt heads while I used 600g, 1000g, 1500g and 2000g wet sandpaper followed up by the dremel with a felt wheel and some polishing compound. Lastly, a couple coats of paste wax. It took a couple hours and lots of elbow grease plus $7 for the sandpaper. A little blue locktite will keep the devil horns in place.

 

Hey guys,

Thanks for your support form these coments, all tough they don't bother me. I have never feared any competition and if bluetacoma4 can provide the same quality product or better for less then he should jump on the CNC machines and start making some, maybe I'll take a vacation from making them . I'm not sure how he calculated a part like this to be $25, I hope he wasn't thinking of shipping them over seas. I beleive that the American work force should bring back OUR work and keep OUR people employed, but sadly it isn't that way. In my earlier days of machining, I witnessed how shipping our work to China has damaged our company, leading to lay-offs and un employment. Not long ago (50+ years) this country used to make most of our goods and we were credited for our quality and craftsmanship. These days I can hardly find anything that's 100% made here in our country, even our american brands are fabricated somewhere else. Yes indeed I can have China make them, kick back and reap the profits but that's not what I beleive in. Just this year I met a young guy who was curious to learn how to make these parts so I invited him over. Next thing I know I hired him and it's a great feeling to teach someone something that you're passionate about. I couldn't get the same feeling sending my work over seas and definatelly I wouldn't have been able to share what I know with this young guy.

I know there's been late shipping lately and for that I apologize. Discounts have been made for the late shipping issuing 50% money back and even 100% while still sending the emblems out. My guarantee is I will reinburse 100% the purchase cost for any emblem, even if years have passed since it was bought. If anywhere down the line the emblem gets badly damaged, scratched, dented, color fades or you simply don't want it anymore I still stand by my product and my guarantee.

Good design for what it is, but I've never understood people's need to be perceived as evil or diabolical, with so much negative stuff going on in the world already. When I see skulls, horns, etc. on vehicles I think of ex-cons and thuggery. Not much different than gang-bangers who drive around disturbing the peace with subs.

This one is a matter of personal opinion...
Duke university has a blue devil, french chapels have gargoyles in them, yet people acept them. Everyone has a right to share what they beleive in, and should have an obligaiton to respect one another.

Man your work is impeccable. I was happy to pay for something I could not do myself. It is a very well made peice, I was actually suprised at how solid and heavy the emblem was when I first received it. If others wanna hate let them, if they feel they can produce something better then go for it. As for myself and many others on here let me say thanks to Andres for what he made. There is a reason people have and continue to line up to order from him.

 

^^ What he said. I love the weight of it. Was glad to replace the cheap ass plastic with something solid

 

Stealth Horns

 

its funny, since everyone has expressed their opinions on bluetacoma's comments, he has not said a word....he can go j/o

 

I'm glad I bought mine, and spent the time to make them shine. Thanks Andres for making a quality product.

 

For what it's worth, I'll lend my support to Andres. I love my horns and feel I got my money's worth, so I'm happy. I don't understand one's need to bash someone else's success. If you can make the same quality product with the same promise, shut your mouth and start making them.

Again, Thanks Andres I love the Horns

 

I haven't gotten mine yet but I am happy waiting till I do. I know that there were many others ahead of me. It's hard to wait for something that I think will add to the look of my truck but from what I've seen they are well worth the wait. Keep up the Great Work Andres.........

 

I got mine straightened out. I had to cut the mesh, but they are straight! Thanks Andres you da man!!

 

DAMN!!!! That looks awesome!

 

LOL TY

I actually got them to place on a Grillcraft grill that I want to install this winter.

Andres is kind enought to jump through all the Toyota red tape and produce these once a year. I missed out last year, I did not get my Tacoma until my birthday in August, so I knew I was going to order them this year.

I cannot get over the quality of the product. This feels like old 1950 car parts, all metal and well made. Not some piece of mylar wrapped plastic.

 

Just got my horns today....they are amazing I love them. Great work Andres keep it up, I will buy from you anytime. Thanks for everything and the quick email responses.

 

Now your work begins.

 

just got them today thanks adres

 

OMG these emblems are so worth the wait, workmanship is excellent, can't wait to order again next time. Thanks Andres

 

They really are fantastic, got mine yesterday...Definitely worth the wait...Thanks Andres....

 

Got mine on Tuesday. Thanks Andres! Looks great.
