Hood Ornament For Elio

[Rickb]

I dont mind the logo seems only two will be on the car steering wheel and front nose. Elio doesn't have a icon (chevy bow tie) and or mascot(Ferrari prancing horse) of some sort not much to have on the car. I will put Ferrari fender shields on mine as a joke

Every car I've owned for the last 40 years I've de-emblemed (removed all of the emblems)
I'll leave things that are built in (like the bowtie on a Chevy grill) but everything on the sides and back I pull off.
I think it makes a car look "cleaner"
I do have a box full of emblems; I may strip them off, but I don't throw them away.
I also pull off dealer license frames as soon as I can; one car I bought, the license frame never left the lot. Salesman asked me why once, I told him "if you want to pay me for advertising, I'll leave it on".

I do the same with dealer frames. I remember my last car purchase i took them off and brought the car back few days later for a check engine light. They magically reappeared on the car again.

Only thing I plan to put on mine is a discreet letter "Z" in honor of Zelio

Ditto. Though I'm still looking at pinstripe themes and such.

a good while ago it was announced that EM would be relocating the P4 windshield wiper to help reduce drag and promote gas mileage .... that told me that they are serious about aerodynamics .... pictures released of the P5 appears to indicate that has been done .... for me 84 mpg would be great but isn't my main concern .... as but one example, I plan to run the P3 front fenders .... if someone comes up with some sort of aftermarket badge I like, I'd probably take a serious look at getting one .... that said, I don't plan to go looking for anything of that sort

Not going to hold ELIO to 84 MPG long as it gets close that will do

THE ALVIS RABBIT HOOD ORNAMENT IS ONE OF MY FAVORITES

THE ARMSTRONG SIDDELEY SPHINX IS GOOD TOO .

THE DELAHAYE DRAGON FLY HAS TO ME MORE AERODYNAMIC

I'm having a friend draw up a shield similar to Carroll Shelby's Terlingua Racing Team sticker - except I'm using the shield only . . . with a prancing armadillo.

Take that, Ferrari!

I liked the Buick Indian head that would light up.

I had a 1955 Pontiac Star Chief w/ a light up (Bakelite) hood ornament in the shape of an Indian head. I don't recall Buick's...
