sorry for the night shots i had to shoot in night mode to get the image visible. so its in black and white. couldnt find my tripod for long exposure.

im goign to try chrome-ing the letters out later...currently they are in some silver finish. i tried ordering the nearest possible font i could find to the original. if this doesnt work, im going to have a friend split the original mazda emblem by letters.

 

Looks good mrtux.

 

doesn't look too bad, but mazda isn't nearly as cool a brand as say, porsche and ferrari. So I don't see myself doing anything like that.

The brand name across the entire back reminds me of those TOYOTA trucks

Debadged, and a simple RX-8 in the center would look sweet.

 

left my badges at the shop...i'll try taking a pic of that for you when i get a hold of them.

 

Maybe someone should try spelling out E-I-G-H-T

That should be unique at least.

 

oh, I like that idea!

EIGHT.

Someone mentioned this site in another thread - they custom make car badges:

https://www.emblemhouse.com/shop/

 

i think that place does them on slabs of aluminum/metal. it'd get pretty hefty for them to custom design/mold individual letters. plus they wouldnt be in that light plastic chrome material, and even with adhesive taping it might start slipping after awhile.

one place i've found that actually does the emblem material and quality like we see on most emblems quoted me at least $3k to custom mold and you'd have to order in bulk of 500.

 

good Idea...

 

What about gold-plated material? I would be interested in something like that.

 

hah i was thinking of that too. might blend in with those gold ms rims and gold strakes.

 

I was thinking along the lines of matching my future gold ADVAN SA3R's or SSR Mesh's.

 

looks a little too much like the "new" skyline but if it's cool you did something different, maybe someone should do "wankel" and see how many times you get questioned about it (heh)

 

its funny - in a time when people are DEBADGING their cars, somone is actually adding to their car.....interesting.

Though an intruiging idea, I'm not sure it was executed quite right.

 

Sorry but it looks like a perfectly good way to ruin a nice car IMO.

 

I like it..i think it looks nice and unique. (for mazda at least)

 

Don't listen to her. Last time I saw her car, it had a HONDA emblem on it. :D :D

 

ha ha ha! Yes, my car did have a HONDA emblem on it...but thats all allen right there!!!!!! :p

 

debadge it allll , make it clean

 

I prefer a cleaner, more simple look. Yes, this is coming from someone who plans on putting on the MS spoiler!

:p

 

i put the RENESIS emblem on the back of mine

 

yeah, that didnt work out too well, huh? we noticed that it's not even on straight.
