Hood Emblem?

I've been working at Zebco here in Tulsa this summer, and the product development guys there said they could make me a sweet aluminum rotor hood emblem. What does the wise forum think? Would you be interesting in getting something like that? Where would be the place to mount it? I'm sure they could paint it any color too, but I like polished I think.

I'd say right in the middle near the front edge would look good - just like Porsche does with their badges. I'd buy one if my car had a rotary still.

For those who don't can't get a custom one made for them on the cheap, some of the rotor keychains out there are very nice, and could be ground flat on one side.

I agree with 604Ryder, I like the discreet look too. I was thinking of a design for a hood that has a raised rotor shape about 12" across in the center of the hood. It would only be raised probably 5 or 6 mm, but it would be enough to notice and I think it would look pretty sweet. I could get them made, but it would never be worth it unless the order was for a larger quantity, maybe 25 or 50. And it wouldn't really work on the TII's, just an n/a sort of thing I guess.
