I modeled the prints in solid works after taking measurements from my cars current badges. A friend of mine then was able to print them using optical liquid resin. The gold is gilding paint and the red and black are matte car paint.

    So cool!

    I’m really surprised this kind of mod isn’t very popular. I’d imagine customization for every kind of car and every game/movie/tv/band, but when I’ve ever looked, I pretty much found nothing.

      Ikr! I was very disappointed with the quality of what I found out there, which is why I did it myself.

    This is really neat! Will the resin used eventually become discolored or will it look like the above forever?

    Umbreon was always the best Eeveelution.

    I’ve never modded much of anything because I want anything I do to be of professional quality and i just dont have the knowledge or tools. Excellent work, looks like it belongs!
