Talking Emblem overlays -- got my custom design put on!

Several folks have put on the carbon fiber emblem overlays as found on ebay. Awhile back, I saw a college logo put on one by a user who made his own decal. That gave me the idea to contact the ebay sellers to see if they'd do a custom one for me. One guy said he could, but that I'd have to buy a lot of 10 sets. Sorry, but I only have one truck. Another guy never replied. And the third said he could do anything I could design ... no minimum buy. So, I had him make me up some "longhorn" decals for $20. We miscommunicated at first as I only received one big decal plus the steering wheel decal. I thought I would be receiving a "set" ... that being two big ones. The seller was very cool about it and quickly sent me the second big one at his expense.

Being a UT grad in Austin TX, this will look quite nice while driving around town. I'd seen one similiar on a late '90s model a couple of years ago. I nearly wrecked when I saw it. So, here's hoping someone nearly (but doesn't) wreck while checking out mine!

Nice idea, but you could have picked a better emblem. I was thinking something a little more purple. Go cats!

Sweet! You should ask the guy if he'd mind you throwing some business his way and giving his email out to others who want custom logos.

You guys all have horrible taste, especially scottb1014!

Glory Glory to ole' Georgia.... Gooooo DAWGS!

FYI, if you're buying those stickers from someone and they're not CLC licensed it could lead to big trouble. I checked into it bc I was atleast one of the first to have a custome college logo on my truck, while the CLC thought it was a good idea they wouldn't grant a licenese for it becasue it would be covering another company logo.

"how bout them dawgs!"

I sent the decal seller an email about posting his info. I really need to hear back from him before I post anything else. I'll reply again by the end of the weekend.

Looks good. But I think it would look a little better if there was a 'Cubs' logo or a Notre Dame logo on there!
