I'm sure there will probably be several from some of the forum supporters, and someone in the C6 community can probably point you toward several.
One option that I'm aware of is the Chevy underhood pad with the C6 logo on it. I believe the part number is 17801773. Prices are about $175-$200. You may want to try Gene Culley at Cultrag for this. Gene is a long time forum supporter and offers a full range of GM parts.
Good luck.
