Custom or Vintage Subaru Emblems?
Anyone know a good place or person to get custom emblems done?
My BRZ is getting a new front bumper right now at the shop and I chose to have the emblem shaved (free vs. $58 for a new OEM emblem). I decided shaving it also gives me more options for getting a custom emblem since it'd be a blank surface that I can just attach stuff to using 3M tape lol. I did some searching and didnt find much. Most of the results were just vinyl overlays, which is not what I want. Also, kinda liking the vintage Subaru emblem since it doesnt have the blue background: But I cant find that anywhere either |

Polished plastic is cheap (as it's usually solvent polished) and you could hand finish it if so desired. I know there's a company that makes custom stainless/aluminum badges but can't remember where I saw them. |

Try billet badges, you can see samples of their work on YouTube -> Tom's Turbo Garage Miata.
