I doubt if you can find anyone locally that will do it because the emblems are copyrighted by GM. About 6 months ago I was trying to get someone local to me to embroider a C5 emblem on a black piece of fabric to put on my under hood pad. I called probably 10 or 15 places that advertised in my yellowpages and no one would do it. I finally got it done by forum vendor CarskinZ, contact Chris. He does excellent work and is affordable. http://forums.corvetteforum.com/c5-p...dio-bezel.html

Even if you can locatte a company that would do a "one off" job with a copyrighted logo you'll find the cost to digitize the image for the embroidery equipment is pretty steep.

You best bet is an established Corvette vendor.
