Got bored and...

... made a replacement rotary emblems for the flying mazda ones. I have looked around for them and couldn't find any for sell. Actually Mazsport make some but $59 looks to much IMO. So I made one from wood and used it to make the mold. Some fiberglass in it, some silver and clear and voilą

Haven't put them on yet. Will take some pics when install them. From 12 feet .

What is wrong with the center? I want a simple rotary symbol. My idea is a chip alternative to "debadging", not another mazda logo.

haha nice only thing to worry about is your size i hope you did some pre dimensioning or praying because when you center it and it doesnt cover the holes it will look slightly goofy lol.. also paint it black.. that silver doesnt looki right IMO

My camera made it :D . If only it was real...

BTW I tried the rotary emblem on the back and doesn't look good. Too big and looks like it shouldn't be there. Got some pics but not worth it to post. Have to thing of something else.

I think a thinner version, perhaps with the styling of the mazda logo would be perfect.
