Again, thanks for all the orders over the weekend. You guys are the definition of consistent. All but one of you ordered a black and silver one. Those look good, but I'm really surprised nobody chose any other color combos. The 80 series guys are all over the place with the color combos they order. I truly feel that the white background with black text looks the best on the white land cruisers. Silver background with black text looks nice as well. I have had a few LX450 guys order the white background with silver text to match there two tone white/silver LX450. I do have the black/silver, white/black, and red silver in stock and ready to ship next day; BUT I can also do custom color combos for the same price but with a couple day longer wait before shipping. I will snap a pic of the white/black combo when I get off work tonight.
I'm just waiting on delivery of that particular factory sombrero. As soon as I have it, I will get to work on making a badge that fits perfectly on the 03-07 100 series.
I ordered the rear badge for my 100. The curved one. It'll work fine with a few hits to the top and bottom to effectively reduce the radius of the curve.
I am not sure the TEQ badge for the rear hatch of the 80 series will fit your 100. If the curvature doesn't match, you can heat it in the oven to about 175 degrees for a few minutes and that should make it soft enough to bend it slightly. If that doesn't work then add 5 degrees to the oven and try again until you get it soft enough to be maluable. As soon as I get the 100 series badges in th mail, I will be making one that is an exact curvature and dimensional match to the 100 series.
job! 5 screws and you are done!

Hey! Where'd the mountians go?!?!?
Installed mine today. Really dig it. Thanks again.
A little before and after action for you all.

Those are looking good. I'm glad you like how it looks. I'm still surprised that I have only sold the black/silver combo to you guys. I'm sure someone will break the norm and go with a different color combo. I guess the black/silver is a nice classic look.

I bought a red/silver one too, but will wait until I put on a bull bar before I get that flashy.

I forgot about the one red/silver one. I keep being optimistic that someone with a white 100 series will buy a white one with the black text. I have done that combo on the 80 series and it looked really good. I would like to see how it looks on the white 100 series. The silver background with black text looks really nice on the silver and gray paint scheme as well.

You probably should go ahead and start on the 200 series also.
What about a white with red text?
Any suggestions for River Rock Green paint? I was leaning towards gray background with black letters… I am anxiously awaiting the development of the back emblem for the 100's as well! Looking forward to seeing them on my LC!
I have done a couple of those for the fj40 guys but I have not done the red and white combo for the 80 and 100 series guys. That is definitely something I can do.
the black and silver combo would probably look best with the green paint.
Great!
I'm ready for the rear badge, no more sombrero for me.
The down side is that the front badge IS different on the 98-02 and the 03-07; and they are different enough that I can't use any aspect of the old emblem. Both the front and rear will need to be made from scratch. It will take me a couple days to get a prototype created and then probably a few more versions before I have it perfected. I'm looking at late next week before I could have this ready on my website. I will work as fast as I can with the little free time that I have.
