    Talking Eat your heart out!

    So after many weeks of sitting in the holy Moab red dust...I finally broke down and got my baby sparkling clean! I took her to an amazing detail shop...referred to me from Gill...Thanks again by the way. And they were working on Ferrari's and Lambos...etc....I handed the keys over and $400 and 5 hours later...she came back a beauty. Oh did I mention that the clients were checking out my VX over the Ferrari's and Lambo's! We Rock!!!! Check her out!!! They even did the under the hood!!! She is better than brand new!!! I am sooooo EXCITED!!!!! EEEEEKKKKKKkkk! before and after shots...

    Very nice! Off the subject... have you ever thought about replacing the Ironman logo with a custom IronWoman logo?

    Yeah...I just have to find the right people to design it...Do you know anyone...I want it to be the same logo but as "VX" to the front and a "W" next to the face over the "M".

    and with the VX added to the front and the W on top like she said... lol




    I did some time as a graphic designer in my 20s.... it's kinda fun to rework logos.

    OK who's next?

    Let me know what you would like modified or fixed, I have a High Res version that you can have to take to the sign shop.

    How long (in inches) is the sticker on the hood anyways?

    Personally I don't like the "M" used as an inverted "W" - the IronMan Logo is supposed to suggest a human form with the "M" topped by the dot for a head. My Inverting the "M" for the "W" it's hard to read for me, and changes the intent of the original "M." I think etlsport is on the right track, however if the "W" is more like the existing font it would look better, in my opinion (I spent several years doing logo design for a graphic design company).

    Moving parts of the lettering above the plane doesn't work for me either - your eye doesn't flow across the logo so it's not intuitive what the logo says. For the hood logo, if you're just modifying the existing logo that is an easy way to do it, however. If you're updating the side logos too, I don't think it would look right. I'm not trying to hurt anyone's feelings so don't take this the wrong way - just my personal opinion.
