Daytona Beach, Florida

Rust. Steel. One of a Kind.

Bad Apple Designs builds original artwork for the rat rod lifestyle — hand-crafted pieces made for the builders, the shops, and the shows that keep the culture alive.

The Story

Built in Daytona

Bad Apple Designs came out of the rat rod scene — not a studio. Based in Daytona, Florida, every piece is designed and built by hand for the people who live this culture: the builders, the shops, and the crowds that show up when the rods roll in.

From patina shop signs to custom show trophies, nothing is mass-produced and nothing is made twice. If it hangs on your wall or sits in your shop, it's the only one like it anywhere.

Bad Apple proudly supports rat rod shops across the country and hosts an annual rat rod event during Daytona Bike Week every spring.
