Default Made these side emblems. What do you think

I made these emblems for my 2005 Supercharged 574HP A4 auto rear widebody C6. Now they are just temporally installed to see if I likes them. The Supercharger emblem I purchased but the Z I made from 1/8 aluminum. I made it because I go by RAYZZZ all the time with the stuff I do. What do you think
THANKS RAYZZZ MY CORVETTE LIKES MY MONEY






This is a pic before emblems so you can see car.

You did a nice job, they are not for me, but what I think doesn't really matter. What do you think is the real question!

I think the emblems look great and it's even more impressive that you fabricated a portion of the badge!

I think the emblems look great, but like many others, badges aren't for me.

Default Frog

There is a small fish pond with a metal frog spitting water out its mouth into the water. Does look out of place there.
