Right now I'm working on the wheel hub cap emblems....it'll be just like number 2 except better because it's a circle and hopefully there's nothing that restricts me to have to cover or work around. Does anyone know on top of their head if the Emblem on the hub cap is together with the hub cap? or does the emblem come off by itself?

Default Wheel Hub Cap

Here's what I have for the wheel hub cap emblem...I this one we can do without the background fill-in.



Hey AG, I actually know of a place in SF bay area that could do 3D printing of these parts.....check out www.protocafe.com

I use them for prototyping for work...but the way the make these prototype (for fitting purposes of course) it's like 3D printing and it only takes a couple of days or less turn around time to make these models. But if we're making it out of machining, going this path does necessary mean we can machine it.

PS> I sent you the file for the Wheel Hub Cap Emblem too...it's a draft
