rtbiscuit Posted June 24, 2009 Author Share Posted June 24, 2009 Just been in contact with rob, he had been out at the NIA watching the Britians got talent show. anyways, while i was on the phone he has emailed me some of the pics, i can't post them up yet as they aren't water marked, but he is going to send me the whole set of pics water marked to me within the hour. the ones i have seen are the standard chrome and red, but he has also shown me the carbon fibre one, the chrome and gloss black, and a very sexy chrome and silver flake. they are only mounted up on a piece of black acrylic, and the thing i have learnt is that Robs work looks even better in the flesh, and when its on a car. not only that, but Rob has also made 3 versions of the Zed, he saw the original Zed (not the Tommy K) and has tried to incorporate that into 2 other prototypes. they may or may not be to your liking, but its an option that you have. if you don't then you can stick with the standard. i think he made 10 sets up of each design and in the different colours. i'll post rob a link to this thread once the pics go live i think you guys are going to like these. see whos going to wait up till half 12 to see them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stew Posted June 24, 2009 Share Posted June 24, 2009 The sparkle is lovely! I really like the three squares as it ties it to the 350Z specifically. I have a genuine Tommy K on the back. I am interested to see what can be done on the side badges though! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BulletMagnet Posted June 24, 2009 Share Posted June 24, 2009 It's a good thing that everybody has different tastes. Personally, I think the originals look better, but that's just my opinion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rtbiscuit Posted June 24, 2009 Author Share Posted June 24, 2009 It's a good thing that everybody has different tastes.Personally, I think the originals look better, but that's just my opinion. i must admit, now that i have put the old one against the new likwid art ones i prefer the new ones, the old one looks more plasticky, but then i am more biased, i think once you see them on a car or in the flesh they look even better. plus there are no more small holes on the badge for the gunk to build up in. it also gives more options colour wise, so not everyone will end up looking the same. for me at the end of the day is that the original is nice, but not £70 nice for the plans i had it would be too expensive, and also limited on what i want to do, tommy only offer one size, and i want to rebadge the car, i.e. wheel centres wings and strut bar. and the originals just dont offer that versatility. at the end of the day its each to their own, its what makes us individual Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BulletMagnet Posted June 24, 2009 Share Posted June 24, 2009 Right, here goes... For me, the Tommy K badge is something special. People who own them are probably cringing knowing that these will be out there. My reasoning is this. How many times do you see for example Tommy Hilfiger jumpers sold at market stores? And when you see them worn by someone, you can deffo tell that they are not the genuine article. It's like, why didn't you buy a gearknob off kta, but decided to get a genuine Nismo Titanium one instead? (I admit it was part of a prize, but the decision was still made to go genuine) Now I'm only speaking for myself, but if I were to wear a knockoff Tommy Hilfiger jumper, I'd feel cheap. Call me a brand whore if you like. As I said before, everybody has different tastes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
