Default Custom Badges

Hey guys. Looking to get some Custom 3D badges made up for my truck. Wanted them to have the 3D effect like the badges that are already on my 2010 F150, but be powdercoated black and have something different on them. Is there any other companies doing custom badges? I contacted billet badges a few times over the last month and a half and have not recieved any reply to my emails. Are they still in business or has anyone else had trouble with contacting anyone? I was hoping they could make a custom rear view camera housing too, as well as replace the F150 emblem on the tailgate with the same emblem on the side of thet truck.

As far as I know BilletBadges is still in business and makes great products. I had Steve (the owner) make replacement fender badges for my old 2007 F150 and called him before the holidays about making some for my 2010 but he said that he was going to be busy w/SEMA coming up.

I had called him and he answered. I'm not sure why he didn't answer your emails but my best suggestion would be to just simply call him up & leave a message if he doesn't answer, but in my experience he is pretty good w/answering his phone. I'll see if I can find what he made for me in my photobucket collection and post em for you to see. Good luck!

I've had the same problem with them getting back to me... It's been about 2 months since I've put in my quote request (and emailed them as well)... hmm, let me know if you find something out.

Hmmm...that is really weird guys. Raider, when I saw your post I decided to call him up (619-818-1965) & he answered. He said that while he is really backed up due to the holidays, that if you order something off his site he could probably have it done before Christmas, but if it is something totally new & custom that it might take 4-6 weeks.

I'd say that if he hasn't gotten back to any of your emails to call him directly and get yourself put on his radar. Just my $.02

Think he could do the rearview camera housing in billet to exact specs? I was wanting to rebuild it, get it powdercoated black and have custom 3D lettering put on it like the factory side badges.

I don't see why he wouldn't since he has the machinery to do so, and I would guess his skill level is capable. But once again, I would call him and ask and send him whatever specs/dimensions/sketches you have so that it can be exactly what you want.
