Custom Blackwing Logo

[Mikezulu18]

Just wanted to get thoughts on the rendering of the logo I had created for the car. All thoughts appreciated. I personally love how it looks and not sure if I'll ask for any changes. But that is why I'm an asking y'all. The badge will have a brushed carbon black finish with machined carbon black recesses.

This actually looks great! I've been wanting to do a Blackwing Logo myself. need to figure how I can do it. Do you have a place that will be doing this and pricing? I might be interested in one.

I'm pretty sure after they creat mine it will be accurately to purchase way cheaper than what I'm paying. Cost me about $320 to have them build it from scratch start to finish. I believe it would cost you 125$ ish give or take 25.

billetbadges is the company building it for me. Just checked and it looks like the badge itself is $155

Really not bad BUT if possible, I'd try to get the areas shown as dark black to be voids like the actual logo. Ironically I just dropped my car for a small issue or I'd share photos of some mockups I've attached to my car (not final but representations of a couple of options - one in black and one in carbon fiber for now.)

Found 1 from a few weeks ago but the flash makes it look almost silver. Have to take some shots when I get the car back.

Yeah I see what you mean. Not sure they can since it's out of one piece of billet aluminum. That does look good.

I would want 3 of them to replace the V logo

These are pretty big roughly 6.7x1.5.....I debadged all the V logos on the outside and put on the Monochromatic Cadillac emblems

I thought it seemed pretty big as well. I just measured the V badges on my 5BW, and they're ~4.75 inches wide at the top and 0.75 inch tall. That 6.7 inch wide BW badge would just fit in between the trunk trim and taillight if you wanted to replace the V badge with it.

Yeah I'm debating asking them to shrink it down a touch. The other option was just below the Cadillac badge centered.

That belongs in place of the Caddy shield center of trunk.

If they could get shrunk down to the v badge logo, I would be all about it

I'm gonna measure it out with some paper today to see how it would look on the car.

Same here !!!

I'm curious how 5.9x1.26 or 5.5x1.17 would look. Based off that tape measure picture it would fit a lot better but you'd almost need to see a paper mock up to see how it would look in real life. The blades on the end are pretty thin already.

My super sweet paper mock ups......

On to the car next

 

[burn813]

the 5.5 would work nicely as a replacement for the v badge
