Does anyone have the contact info for "crazitaxi"??
I'd like to get a set of these emblems.
I realize that they have adhesive backings....but is it an actual "emblem" as in plastic, 3-dimensional?? Or is it just a flat sticker?

I'de like to know also. I'de like to purchase one.

Oldsman
12-24-2003, 10:36 AM
it is a vinyl sticker that has plastic dome to it. so it looks just like an actually emblem.

OpalaAlero
12-24-2003, 10:38 AM

Oldsmopimp
12-24-2003, 02:15 PM

sweet! thanx for the link!! I just ordered them.

OpalaAlero
12-27-2003, 04:24 PM
Do you have pics of your car, oldsmopimp? It sound pretty sweet.

Oldsmopimp
12-27-2003, 09:29 PM
No, not really. I'm waiting to borrow my friends digital, but rest assured...I'll have pics up prolly everytime that I do a mod, or something diffrent. It looks very stock now, so it's not much to see, but I have a low quality pic of it on my new member thread(where all the newbies post) if ya wanna see that. By the way, what the hell is an "Opala" alero?? or is that just your screen name?

OpalaAlero
12-28-2003, 12:37 AM
Opala is the shade of blue my alero is.

Crazytaxi37
12-29-2003, 01:36 AM
Actually I have responded to you and you responded back. Do be advised that custom car grill's enblems are not the same as mine.

OpalaAlero
12-29-2003, 10:34 AM
How are they different?

Crazytaxi37
12-30-2003, 12:52 AM
The chrome on the olds emblem and the SV area's are actual chrome on mine. Not on the others. For the best comparison I would talk to Dayton. He has purchased both.

OpalaAlero
12-30-2003, 12:20 PM
What colors do you have?

Oldsman
12-30-2003, 01:12 PM
the OSV emblems only came one way. Crazy's resemble the factory emblems as close as possible. the others don't.

Crazytaxi37
12-31-2003, 12:45 AM
I can get any color you want but colors that have not been done before cost more as I have to pay the producer to do the art layout again. I know, sounds dumb but, that's how it is. We have already done blue/chrome, red/chrome, and red/gold.

OpalaAlero
12-31-2003, 11:48 AM
Is it a light blue or a dark blue? I want it to match my car.

Oldsman
12-31-2003, 11:05 PM
why would you want these emblems to match your car so they blend in and not stand out.

I guess i believe in keeping it close to how the factory did it so it does look factory. looks more realiztic

I just got my OSV emblems from custom car grills. They are OK......I scanned them so yall can see a pic. The appearence from a distance looks ok, but if you look closly under a light, the quality isnt really there. There are (very small) air bubbles in the plastic coating too. (these may be in both versions...i dont know)

From what Ive seen and heard, crazitaxis are much better, and I think I might even order his as well(to get that chrome look) So if your in the market to get a set of OSV's....id recommend crazitaxi

well, i dont see the section on my screen where i can add a photo attatchment....ggrrr <_< Ill try to find a way to post the pix

I just got Crazitaxis emblems in the mail a couple days ago. They look great!! Waaaaaay better than custom car grills. Nice job crazitaxi :thumbsup:

Hobbes
01-17-2004, 03:49 PM
They look killer! But are they just stickers or more than that, do they have the depth of emblems, they look great! I might buy some, What is the back decal that custom car grills talked about?

Crazytaxi37
01-25-2004, 02:27 PM
The true OSV alero's only had two emblems.

One on each fender. NOT on the back.

Pilate
02-26-2004, 12:39 AM
These are great decals! I got mine last summer and they still look great! Anyway, I placed mine in the indent at the lower part of each fender...you know where the channel begins along the door. I also put one on the back. However, I do believe that on the true OSV they were actually placed almost level with the top of the wheel well.

I have the gold OSV badges. They too look BAD ASS. Out of all the things I have done to my car that it the most talked about item. Only if it was a real OSV.

Steve03TropicTeal
04-23-2004, 01:04 AM
maybe a dumb question, I know what OSV stands for now.. But did they really make OSV Aleros? and if so, what the hell is that? a faster version? or just some special badging like all GM Special editions are?

Crazytaxi37
04-23-2004, 04:51 AM
The OSV edition Oldsmobiles(Alero, Intregue, and others) were concept cars.

I have been trying to get ahold of CrazyTaxi all week, I have had no luck. I use to have these on my car a while back and took them off for some reason. I want them back. :) I stuck one on the front of my car on the hood above the Olds emblem. What do you guys think? So if CrazyTaxi is reading this please IM me on AIM at JDOG218 or PM me.

What u think of when I use to have the OSV emblems and put them on my hood?
