    Wow, I thought that would look good on back but now I must do that! Great cut and paste job to get an idea. I think it would be to big for grill but looks great on rear.

    .

    I actually have a VX badge kit from Isuzu. When my VX rolled the body shop ordered the kit and it costs $280 for the badges and that didn't include the Ironman badges they purchased separate, because they didn't ask for the IRONMAN full badge kit.I would be willing to sell the badges at a reasonable price ...pm eme if interested.
    kit includes
    1) large ISUZU badge for rear door
    2) 3.5L side fender badges
    1) TORQUE ON DEMAND rear door badge
    1) 4WD rear door badge
    2) VehiCROSS upper rear side panel badges
    also I have
    2) IRONMAN TRIATHALON upper rear side panel badges

    Jim...love the look of that badge. Here is what I had done, and it didn't cost no stinkin' $50.00 for one badge.



    plus I had a smaller all chrome decal made to fit exactly under the 1/2 moon cladding...I'll see which one I like better, i may changeto the smaller one later.

    Thanks!
    I used 3" x 1/8" aluminum strip.. cut out the letters, and shaped them using my Dremel, many bits (I kept wearing them out!) and lots of time! Each letter took approximately 2-3 hours. 1 hour to cut the letters out, and 2ish to shape, sculpt, sand, sand, sand.. and polish.

    I did it in Aluminum because I saw the badge on the back of a Porsche Cayenne and LOVED how classy and stylish it looked.

    Bigger...

    I don't know if anyone makes that type of aluminum in a bigger size. I was thinking of trying some different materials.

    I've already had a couple people ask if they could buy these from me... Honestly, I don't know if I can make anymore. They take so much darned time and effort. They are literally like working on a sculpture project for an art class. If I did make more of these, I'd probably have to sell them for a higher price than the original pillar badges. If I find a material that is easier to work with, I'll let you all know.
    I might be willing to make some more of the "VX" emblems:

    But that's about all I can do right now.
    If I get enough requests for the VehiCross emblem, I might reconsider...

    Does anyone know how much Isuzu would charge for the c pillars badges and for the Isuzu emblem between the fangs on the grill? One I saw had those missing and i'm curious how much it would cost me to replace.
