Polished Emblems anyone?

I thought it would look cool to make polished emblems to match my wheels.. they ended up being completely different from what I had in mind but I like em! I did the bumper emblem a bowtie for the grill, the sides and back and I had a sticker shop make the rs cut outs and just stuck em on

The sides look just like the back, accept for the additional bowtie

Si Senior.. I'm kinda having trouble gettin my camera to focus on these properly for some reason so its a little blurry... I just did the sticker part a few minutes ago just f-in around with the extra sticker material I might change it and do like red white and blue lines comin down or something

As far as buying one off me .. the front one was pretty easy so I guess I could make another, but I honestly dont know when I would be able to get to it... there not that hard to make it just takes a little time.

You are close enough that the camera needs to be on "macro" if it has that adjustment. Otherwise, you just need to back up a little.

The RS logos look really nice. I think you definately have something cool happening with the logos.

Yea I put it on macro for the close up shot, and I couldn't get it to focus right from far away either...oh well

Thanks for the compliments, they took me awhile to do
