Devil horn emblems

[CTScott]

I remember seeing chrome vinyl horn stickers that you could add to the existing badge, which would be a lot easier than trying to modify the back of a replacement badge to make it fit.

I'd like to get a few more people before i even tell him to come on here and become a vendor or anything like that..

Not interested, it was a good idea...until everybody found out about them.

This type of emblem has been approved for a small production under direct permission from Toyota Motor Company's Legal Department under certain rules and conditions.

Let's see the letter of approval. If there's one thing I can't tolerate, it's a liar.

not sure as to who spoke to who about this. i spoke to a specific individual, i didnt him about it yet.

the guy just emailed me again today, and said he was interested in possibly becoming a vendor, he also had a punisher type emblem as well.

Once again whom ever is interested please do let me know id like to get a headcount. he said a price for one would be $120 or less depending of the amount of people that want them.

this guy works with real metals, not that plastic crap or stickers. so i think the price sounds reasonable to me at least.

I'd have to agree with Garm here.

According to their "Brand Standards Guide" (.pdf):

... so I highly doubt that their lawyers would just willy-nilly approve some guy on the internet to modify their logo.

I'd be really interested in seeing that letter as well.

out of curiosity what does it matter if he has a seal of approval or not? i don't believe toyota authorizes quite a different companies to sell anything with their logo or not. but they still do sell items....i'm not getting into the legal matters or anything like that, but i would just like to buy a emblem from someone who can make them. im sure others are interested as well.

whoever said in the 1st page that they contacted a specific guy about these emblems, it might be a different guy who makes them

as for you Garm, i notice you tend to try and push your products throughout every thread you comment on. this is already the second thread i made that i can remember, and your just trying to push your items.... im not selling anything but for future references, i think i can speak for everyone. dont try and peddle your things, when the topic at hand has nothing to do with what you sell....

as for this specific item, i know you don't sell it but are you worried about someone else taking business from you ? don't worry dude there's plenty of people on this forum as well as the other forums you advertise on that you can continue to sell your stuff.

im not even the guy selling these emblems but your pissing me off. let me find the correct info and i'll update everyone... take a chill pill

^ looks like you are the one who needs to take a chill pill. Garm has been selling items and supporting the community for over 6 years now which I could be mistaken, but might be one of only 2 to 3 vendors doing so. His skull emblem he is "peddling" is of high quality ABS and not the "crap" you are seeming to elude to. If you are asinine enough to blow $120 on a horrible horned metal emblem that very well could be illegal and possibly forced to removed by the official manufacturer then more power to you. On a truck, sure, that emblem would look fine and even stylish, but not on a car. It would remind me of Boss Hog's car on Dukes of Hazzard...would look totally out of place.

You have got to be out of your rabid ass mind to think that one of these horned jobs is worth a buck twenty. You wanna know what emblem is worth a buck twenty? The hood ornament for a 50's Chrysler, Buick, Plymouth, or Chevrolet. I love my Yaris, but honestly I really can't think of something that I have wasted money to that tune on mine and I have dropped a great deal of cash on my sedan.

Perhaps this will persuade you to take up your own personal issues via PM instead of in the wide out open after someone has gotten iritated with you not only whining about it on not only this thread, but creating another dedicated one for all to see.

Thanks for letting me know who I will not want to have as a customer for sure...I would hate to sell my products to you seeing as how you support our current vendors.

It really doesn't matter to me. I'm not going to buy one.

I know that there are tons of people out there that make Toyota labeled merchandise out there, 5 seconds on eBay would tell me that. And I'm not going to do anything about it, nor do I care about it.

Hell, Garm has his skull Toyota emblem and I'm not up in arms about it. But, he doesn't run around claiming that Toyota gave him special permission to break their own internal style guide.

I'm sorry, but I find it a little odd that there is that claim about those devil horn emblems. Just my two cents.

at least someone else is seeing the point.
