hey guys been making this 22re badge for about a week at school and thought i would show you guys it.







i started with a peace of MDF and cut out the letters and numbers. then ground them down. glued it to anothe peace of MDF then painted the mold. then i went and casted it out of aluminum. little bit of paint and sanding and it looked like this. had too drill and tap holes in the back and make a backing plate to hold in on.

reason i made this is because i figured if the crapy 3.0L got a V6 badge why dosent the awesome 22re get one right? so yeah haha

what do you think?

 

looks good...but you should have made it a tad bigger LOL

 

i didnt want it too be too big lol. kinda look factory

 

lol what is camo the only one who is gonna give an opinion? i need to know if i should keep it on haha. i got like 8 hours in this thing hah

 

looks good! Leave it on

 

thanks jay. i put alot of boring hours into it lol. thought heck i need to let all the other yota guys who stare at my truck that i dont have a 3.0L lol.

 

Man. 8 hrs. is a long time to spend on this days, so now, go n get that thing pay for it, show-it to the world, but do it with pride, n if they don't like it, so what? the thing is yours.

 

well i was going to keep it no matter what lol just realy wanted to see what people thought of it. i think its decent

 

Looks good!


I put a little less effort into my 22re badge I just bought a new valve cover sticker and threw it on the tail gate






As a suggestions though, were it me, I'd try to recess it back into the grill a little, like the "Toyota" lettering is, so that it doesn't stick out like it does

 

yeah i was thinking the same thing super. this was a test fit si im going to try and do that tomorrow at school . i was thinking of getting the valve cover sticker for the back too lol

 

Fixed it for ya.

 

Thats an awful lot of work... You could probably find some letters from a junkyard that would have worked... or
