So, here are now the pictures of the three sets I have ready. Generally I want to offer them as the raw parts you see left side in the pictures, to make these little parts not to expensive. If you have steady hands it will be no promlem to make a finish. Painting is also very easy done by spraying with an airbrush a very thin layer of paint on the emblems and the smooth the paint away from the letters using very fine (1200) sanding paper. For the black emblems you can also use a substance called "Pewter figures patina". Putting the emblems in this patina they will become black with a very original looking surface. If you dont want to paint them, it looks also very well to polish them with fine steel wool or fibreglass eraser. The emblems are made of 0,3 mm thick "Neusilber" (I don't find the english word for the material), I think It's a kind of stainless steel. Every set includes the double number of emblems you need for one body, so you have some spare parts. Hilift emblems: The emblems have the same size as the decals. The letters "Triton" of the V8 emblem are not very sharp, they are to small for that what I can etch. But now I know what is possible ... Set includes raw emblems: (6) F350, (4) V8, (4) Ford Price: 13,30 EUR (18,-- USD) Bronco emblems: The bronco emblem is 24 mm wide. The Ford types are 2,5 mm high (I'm not sure how they will fit to the grille of the bronco body) Set includes raw emblems: (4) Bronco, (2) F O R D Price: 8,-- EUR (11,-- USD) Landcruiser J4 emblems: Toyota front emblem is 25 mm wide, toyota rear emblem is 15 mm wide, landcruiser emblem is 26 mm wide, 4WD emblem is 11 mm wide. Set includes raw emblems: (2) Toyota front, (2) Toyota rear, (4) Landcruiser, (2) 4WD Price: 10,-- EUR (13,50 USD) Shipping to US (only emblems, max. 50 grams) in a registered letter is 5,-- EUR (6,80 USD) Custom emblems: @ctcballer26 The motive you need is much work for vectorizing. I've calculated 3 hours, plus an half hour for etching, plus material. It is not possible to etch only 3 emblems. The smallest material is approxx. 100 x 100 mm. You will get then the complete numbers of emblems which fits on these size. I would have to make the emblem a little bit bigger than the original highlift emblems, because I think some letters are to small to get a good result. Price for this is 80,-- EUR (110,-- USD) @nissannut The Nissan motive is not very difficult. I've calculated 1 hour, plus an half hour for etching, plus material. Here you also would get the complete numbers of emblems which fits on 100 x 100 mm. Price for this is 45,-- EUR (60,-- USD) Regards Stefan Last edited by scaleoffroad; 05-27-2007 at 03:59 AM. |

Instead of the V8 Triton emblems in the high lift set you should make some powerstroke emblems for the diesel guys. |
