I finally got another good size batch of emblems ready to go. All orders have been filled and I'm ready for round two. Here's a link to my etsy page if you didn't see it above:

I need an update from you guys. I have now shipped all open orders and have fully restocked all of my TEQ emblem options. For the first time in a long time my printer is resting. I need to know who is planning on buying a TEQ badge in the near or distant future. Either post on this thread your interest or shoot me a PM. I need to know if I have enough in stock to meet those orders. If I do, then I can now shift my focus to the "80" and "TOYOTA" grille emblems. It will take me a couple weeks to get a perfect print file set up and a good batch of each made.
I purchased a Black and Silver TEQ emblem off etsy last night before I knew you were planning on making the TOYOTA emblems that look like an FJ40 emblem. I like the TEQ emblem but I love the TOYOTA emblem. Any way I can switch...I don't mind waiting until you have them made.

Per your request on the other thread, I am wanting a red TEQ for my '94. I need to see how a few things shake out at work before fully committing thought. Should be able to know something definite next week.

Awesome! I'm totally interested in a red TEQ badge for my '96 LX450. Should I just order from your Etsy page?

Update time: I got the next badge ready to go. I'm not sure this will be a popular one, but I had enough interest to at least do one batch of 6. I will do another batch if needed. I will only be offering them in the two color combos. They are already on my etsy page and ready to ship out. This is a rear hatch TEQ emblem that can fit on any year 80 series. It can replace the factory "sombrero" or the "L" OR it can be placed off center (leaving the factory emblem). It can slide left or right as far as you want but not up or down. The new emblem is curved on the back which matches the curvature of the rear hatch at that specific elevation on the door. I didn't add the factory "tabs" to this so it could be mounted in numerous locations AND on an LX or YOTA. The factory tabs were super tiny and pretty much useless. The install instructions and more info is on my ETSY page. Here's some pics.

I wanted to give another update. I have a little gold/champagne filament left over from a custom print I did for a member. I went through 3 failed prints before I got the correct temp settings all dialed in. I had not used that brand of filament and every brand has their own unique printing issues. Once I got the order filled I realized I had a little left over to do a few more prints. If anyone wants a black/champagne color combo of any of my designs on ETSY just shoot me a PM and I can make it happen. You can order the emblem through my etsy page. Just make sure you leave a note on the order about color preference and send me a PM first to ensure I still have some gold left. I can do a black background with the champagne text or a champagne background with the black text. I will be able to do this for as long I have the gold filament. (which wont be very long) I will post a pic tonight of what the color looks like.

Update time again. I am fianlly releasing my final TEQ design. This brings my total to 6 different TEQ badge options with 2-3 color options in each. This was an after thought that only got done due to demand. I had quite a few guys ask me through PM's and emails if I was going to release a more "traditional" looking round badge with a flat background. Some didn't want the honeycomb rear pattern. Others liked the pattern but not the oval shape. So here is something to hopefully make the last group happy. This can be mounted on any Landcruiser from any year and any flat surface. So be creative and enjoy finding the perfect mounting place for you. These are on my ETSY page and ready to ship. Finally I can move on to my other designs.

BHICKS- I ordered one of the rear hatch TEQ emblems to cover where my "L" was on the hatch. Thanks for doing these. Way better than sticking a sombrero on, or paying for another lexus logo for my 93's replacement hatch.

Time for a final update on the TEQ badges. The orders have slowed down and I have made a decent batch of every TEQ badge style in every color. I am now moving on to the "TOYOTA" badges, the "80" badges, and the cupholders. What I have in stock is all I will have. I will not go back to print the TEQ badges for quite some time. If you want a TEQ badge then you need to order while I have supplies left. My hope is that I will be able to get back to making another round of TEQ badges some time in late summer or fall of this year.
I am going to be pimping this badge in Charleston... Aw yeah! Thanks for such a cool idea. Can't wait to add it to my grill. Would it hurt your artistic pride if I painted and did it in black though?

Not at all. Feel free to do whatever you want to it. Did you already order one? If not I could print you one in all black, that way it doesn't need to be painted and you never have to worry about any chipping. I could also just send you a black one if you already purhcased one and you could just ship me yours back. The only request is that I ask you to pay for shipping. Let me know what you would like to do.
After much consideration I am going to keep it red and silver. 
I think I want to replace the grill emblem on my 99 model hundy. What do ya think?
My emblem is awesome. I think it really helps set my girl apart from the rest. Thanks bhicks.

Definately doable, but I need the grille to work from. I originally tried to make the TEQ badge for the 80 series off just the badge. That was a huge PITA. I just couldn't get the final dimensions without the grille. I just finished up the FJ40 badge design, I'm working on the FJ60 badge design, and I could put the 100 series in line after that. I do plan to buy a 100 series in the next year or two; so I will eventually have the grille I need, but if you want something quicker, then maybe you could help me track down a grille. Maybe you could check over on the 100 series forum to see if there are any local (Socal) 100 series guys doing a part out or willing to donate their grille for a week to the project. Whoever provides me the grille will get an installed TEQ badge on it for free when shipped back.
