Question Billet Badges

So, I was ordering some custom badges from Billetbadges.com and was informed that they can no longer do custom badges with copyrighted Ford material in them.

So, then I ordered some extra F-150 badges from Ford so he can paint them. Duh, he powder coats the badges and didn't suggest doing it that way.

So long story short, I am going to have some custom badges done up and need some ideas. I don't want some corny crazy *** looking truck. I am gonna put SinCity on the front and back ovals as black ovals and blue text. What I need are ideas for the 3 F-150 emblems. Nothing can be Ford, FX4, etc.

He suggested this.

I think that is to corny, so any input from you guys would be great.

If you did FX4 GT but with the G/T in a script or something would it still be
Sin City
considered copy right?

Just an idea...maybe you can toss that around in your head.

I would think if you put the 4 backwords (facing to the right) it would not infringe the copy right. Just trying to give some ideas.

This is where I had my Billet Badges made

http://www.billettechnology.com/

And go down to "View Our Gallery Of Custom Made Products"

I don't know if they'll run into the same copyright issues as billet badges did (as I did work w/him (billetbadges.com) for my side emblem badges but my grille & tailgate badges were done by billettechnology), but it is atleast worth a try.

Badges made from billettechnology.com






(and this badge is on tailgate as well)

Badges made from billetbadges.com (which from what it sounds like you are saying he is no longer able to make due to copyrights. Here's some pics of what he made for me (over a year ago, so maybe ask www.billettechnology.com if they can make something like this for you only with the design you want. And honestly, on a scale of 1-10 I would have to give billet badges an 8, but billet technology's quality def gets a 10+! anyways, so I'd contact them).





Sorry 4 the glare...hope this helps!
