Custom CNC Badges for the TT G8

[rocket5979]

I have been wanting to make some custom badges for the G8 for a while now, but never got around to modeling it in 3d CAD. Today I decided to tackle it since I am sitting here on my butt recovering from surgery.

What is shown is the drivers side. The passenger side will be mirrored to reflect the sweeping angle going towards the rear of the car. These will replace the boring "6.0" badges that are still on the car.... I plan to paint the background blue and leave all of the raised embossed area/numbers a highly polished chrome. There are still a few tweaks that I want to do with the model and edge chamfers, but you get the gist.

What do you think? Now I need to connect with a CNC machinist/engraver who does this sort of stuff!


Edit: Changed the design a bit.

Leave em off. I like the sleeper look

The car is kind of loud and lumpy sounding with a slight whistle at idle. It's not fooling too many people. Besides, I don't race for money or keep my combos secret, so why not badge it in a way that I like.

402TT without the background/border. Just the letters in a badass font.

Could rip off the old GTP badges. Make the 402 big and stylized if you want and put the words twin-turbo under it.

Que?

I tweaked the design a bit by basically contouring the front edge of the badge. It should blend better that way, I think.

Instead of GTP have the 402, and twin-turbo below.
