Default LS4 Decal

Hey guys,
I thought $100 for a couple of badges was a bit steep for some LS4 badging. As a result, we had some custom color matched decals built and here is the result. It looks really crooked in this photo, even though it's not. They are color matched with the car's color and have a chrome outline on a 3D image. The wording above the LS4 can be changed to whatever. I'll get some better pictures with the car clean.

Thanks,
Tom

Here's maybe a better pic.

Let me know if anybody wants them. We can custom the color to whatever and make the top wording whatever as well.

I'll send 3 of them shipped for $25.

Thanks,
Tom

Any chance we can get a template to play around with and send back to you?

PM to order...send all details. I will not send the template to anybody. We spent weeks and hours on it. Sorry!

Thanks,
Tom

It looks a little weird to be honest. It may look better in person, but the other badges look a little more complete.

But, for the price, you can't beat it.

No offense man, but for spending "weeks and hours" on it, it looks like dog ****. I could whip up something that looked more professional in Illustrator in 5 minutes. There's a reason why emblempros wants $100 for badges...it's because his actually look like they belong on the car (and are OEM-licensed), not like some sticker slapped on there from Pep Boys.

However, to each his own. If you like 'em, then more power to you.

Yeah, not to be rude, but I wouldn't buy as is. That's why I asked. If I were so inclined, I could do it myself from scratch, but I am not. Don't worry about it.

Oh shoot, well, sorry guys for wasting everybody's time. It's really difficult to see how nice they really do look on a dirty car taken with a cell phone camera. But, that's cool. Yea, actually a lot of time went in to creating these by a professional car wrap graphics company. It's hard to tell from these pictures, but they are 3D and color match the car's color completely. My goal was not to profit from these, as cost is right about that, but to help people have nice LS badges without getting RAPED from the "OEM Licensed" company at $50 bucks a pop.

Have a great one!

Do you have to wear 3D glasses to get the full effect from the 3D badge?

Be nice!! He's trying to give other here whom can't afford the 100 badge another option.
I applaud him for trying. So think about others don't shove people aside because you don't care for it give him a chance!!

I'm guessing that the pictures don't do it justice completely, but that's my opinion.

Anyway, what material are these made out of? Do you have any better pictures (clean car, no direct flash, decent lighting) Do you have some dimensions (beyond just comparing against the GXP badge)? How do these affix? I think I'd be interested if a few more details could be provided. I have a hard time justifying $100 for badges too ($100/2.90/gal of premiums = I'd rather have the 30-odd gallons of fuel and enjoyment of driving the vehicle).
