Too bad someone who worked at Corporate Concepts is not on the Forum. They could be a wealth of information on these cars.

Yes. In fact I can do anything as I please to it since I recreated it in Adobe Illustrator. If you have a program that can handle a *.ai , *.svg , or *.eps file I can simply send it your way so you can edit the colors or whatever you wish. If you go with a sign shop (or whatever) to create your emblems I can provide them the working files so they can help you edit the image or colors to your liking. That goes with anyone, really. If you'd like to have the files so you edit them on your own, just let me know.

Zigaroo,
I've never used an svg app, and sure as heck not going to shell out for Illustrator just to learn, but have heard good things about freeware Inkscape--are you familiar with it?

Not familiar, but I just installed it and loaded the svg file for the emblems into Inkscape without a problem. I want to use the program as if it were Illustrator so a lot of the tools don't quite make sense to me right off the bat, but it appears it can do similar functions---just differently.
If you'd like the file to play around just let me know. I'll keep Inkscape installed so I can try and help if needed.[This message has been edited by zigaroo (edited 10-31-2009).]

Thanks!
As I posted earlier, I think your badge with modified Bing "R", is superb. I would like to see that with the red, white, and blue stripes between the Bing "MERA" and the border. I thought I would try that with Inkscape--but be my guest ;-)

I really like the top emblem for door sill decals on the Mera. How would it appear on a black background? Could a vinyl decal be shadowed to give the 3D look you see here? They would look great in a silver or polished metal color. Can anyone here make these?[This message has been edited by Rick 88 (edited 10-31-2009).]

Here's the second one with a black bg,
You can get chrome vinyl and others, like carbon fiber for instance. You're going to want vinyl that has a 5 year life expectancy or longer.
