Oh man!!! I just got the V and the X on before it set up, I had to scrape off the stuff on the R since it was curing in place as I applied it. Damn, I forgot how fast it sets up. Just remember to clean the heck out of the surface of both the letters and the grill. I traced the letters where I was putting them on, then roughed up the area with the dremel sanding drum, then cleaned them meticulously, and applied the letters. I found a plastic scraper and some alcohol (the rubbing kind) work very well to get the 3M tape off the backs of the letters. It's curing right now, and I'm at work, but I'll try to get pics tonight.

Here's pics. The R looks a little messy up close, but I haven't had a chance to chisel off the excess epoxy. From any distance greater than a few inches it is totally invisible.

That looks great. I am going to try to do mine tomorrow. I thinking about leaving the R off mine, but I am not sure.

I really thought about ditching the R too, but all three just fit in there so well, I tried it with just the VX, but to me it looked kind of empty, may be just me though. The R can just stand for so many things too, Rally, Race, VX'er, etc.

Done did it today. I kept the "R" and love it. The "VX" by itself just looked to empty.

Re-opening this little conversation,

My company hired a new guy and I am the lucky one to train him. We sit down at my desk and he notices my desktop and says, "Is that your Isuzu out front?" I am kind of shocked at first thinking, wow most people have to ask what it is since I have outside Isuzu logos off. He then says "I have never seen one of those before, we were checking it out this morning wondering what it was and then I saw the Isuzu on your steering wheel."

DOH!!! I need to cover up that sucker!!!

Any Ideas? I was just gonna order another emblem of some sort and stick it on there, but not so sure now. Looking for something subtle.

when you do it just make sure u cover it with something light enough that if your air bags deploy (i sure hope they dont ever need to!) you dont end up with an emblem in your chest, i beleive the steering wheel breaks apart right at the logo to deploy the airbag

So one of them kung fu throwing star pointy things would be a bad choice then ?

Man, I was just thinking that this morning when I had thought I was all debadged(finally rid of those pesky wheels). There is only the steering wheel and the factory radios. I would be careful putting something on over the Isuzu logo there because my little brother tried putting a sticker over the same place on his car and because of the material it's made of it ended up coming off fairly quickly. I am in the market for something to stick on there and I think I am going to use some silicone to smooth over the logo and stick whatever I put on there in place. Since silicone never really hardens up, I think the airbag will deploy OK with stabbing me.

I think I may just get the wimdows tinted fairly dark

I am an transformers fan and always wanted having my horse completely debaged and placing some nice looking autobots emblems on.

Currently my VX only have the isuzu logos on the rear door and grill,plus my tail light covers has the V-cross chromed letters on them.
