Has anyone come up with a Hardtop/FRC specific logo since the thread in 2002? I've been wanting to do an exhaust plate, but would prefer not to repeat the crossed flags, and of course the Z06 logo is out. I have a few ideas for a logo, but would like to see what's already been done. A search of this forum led to only to the link above. Any help is appreciated.

Here's the 1st concept. I think a black anodized aluminum exhaust plate with this machined into it would look pretty cool. Comments are welcome.

^ Very cool.... make it.

I have to say, that's really quite excellent.

I do a lot of graphics stuff myself. I wouldn't have thought of this in a million years.

And it'll cut easy on a CNC. No sharp inside angles.

Make it.

Thanks for the input and comments guys. I suppose I can credit lots of staring at my car while it was on jackstands. It was during a break in my recent Textralia install that it struck me how well the letters would fit into the silhouette.

Here's a rendering of a carbon fiber plate with chrome letters. Because the logo is so wide vs. it's height, it might get lost between the tips at this width, and seem too small at a width suitable to the tips. A partition might be the better place for it.

Black anodized with machined letters.

Way cool. I would buy one.

nice plate!

Excellent idea buddy. While your at it, why not try and Photoshop it onto some fuel rail covers? That might make a nice addition.....

I like it, it looks like a shoe. Ok ok it looks like the vette.

But what does FRC mean? Is this the GM codename for hardtop?

That's a good idea. I'll try to do that soon. I've got a piece of CF cloth and a quote coming on some laser cut stainless to make the exhaust plate with. I've been so jammed up at work though, it's kind of slipping through the cracks.
