Blacked out my logos with vinyl

And to avoid keeping useless inventory just put all letters except RIVIAN to be out of stock IP infringement? No no no! Just poor inventory management

Maybe, up to you, or very very limited stock. Your marketing team is projecting very low demand for those.

yes exactly this... perfect

Doesn't survive pressure washing. I've tried.

Haha doesn't work because Rivian has their own font/typeface. If they used a generic font that would work.

Solution - Sell another product at a "reasonable cost" but include a special gift with the order.

also, make some bronze colored lettering

No plans for that, sorry.

Yeah, back in the day (in the UK) the DIY stores weren't allowed to sell certain products on Sundays, so you could by an orange for £500, and you got a free fridge. The government ultimately relented on that one.

Poor inventory management I can do

I got one for the skins for the Rivian key cards, so how good a brand promotes to be has nothing to do with whether their lawyers will enforce IP or not I am afraid.

Black and yellow combination is

Looks awesome. I did the same. Don’t go through an automated car wash.. mine made it through about 2 trips. I rear logo cover held on the longest…I just peeled what remained off. I’ve had success with plastidip in the past and may do that instead.

I love the state of "V I R G I N I A" and would be willing to buy letters individually.

No doubt a viable path, but I'm still going to prefer a solution that, even if the lettering itself gets scratched or chipped, will maintain the proper color over the lifetime of the vehicle or gives the two-tone option without very careful masking and prep.

With people talking about how especially the side mounted ones are having vinyl peel off pretty badly (and front I assume) I'd prefer to have a single color molded option. The front and side logos take a beating from wind and the elements. not having to worry about touchups would be worth it to me (and I presume, many others)

My @brainexploder wraps are all good except for one “N” on the side. I wish I could buy just that letter individually but for now my logos are all blacked out except that letter.

I have an extra set of the side ones because I decided it wasn’t worth it for me (I favor the automatic car wash and they just won’t stay and I don’t want to stress about it ). I’m happy to mail it to you ….

I live Hanalei, Kauai. It rains here- like on April 14, 2018 when we had 47 inches in a 24 hr period. The side badges take a beating- you can’t keep the area within the lettering clean unless you use toothbrush. I don’t wash my truck frequently. I removed both front door side badges and may end up removing rear ones in future. Several Central Oregon Rivian owners have used the spray paint method, but the jury is still out.
