Default Custom Emblems

I was wondering if anyone know of a company that make good quality custom emblems? I installed the breadbox eliminator and thought it looked like crap. It was too cheap looking. I decided to take it out and cover it in leather. That made it look a little better, but it just looks like it is missing something. I would like to put a C4 or Corvette emblem on it. I have a few ideas, but I would need them to be custom made. I don't want sticker or decals, but real emblems. If anybody knows of a company that does that please let me know.

You might try, EMBLEMPROS.COM . They make custom emblems and have an easy to navigate website with lots of examples. I've never ordered anything from them, just happened to see their website. I've been looking for a (discontinued) "Chevrolet bowtie w/LT-1" emblem, similar to the factory "ZR-1" emblem to no avail.

I ordered a black and red corvette emblem for the back of my car. I'll use that if I need to but I wanted to do something a little more "custom". I have a few Ideas but I need someone who can put the idea from paper to plastic.

I put a gold rear emblem on my 86. You might also use gold trim around the flat panel to eliminate that gap problem or red letters/red trim would look cool too and go with your car

you'll have to dig back on the C5 general side, for emblems by Austin, does some stunning work, completly custom. A couple of years ago, he was doing side badges for the C5's and some other funky stuff.
