Default Interior badge ideas needed

Hey gang,

I've got a set of Roush RTC seats covers installed in my 2006 GT. I'd like to place a small interior badge (pony, oval, etc) over the badge as my car is not an RTC.

Dimensions of the embroidered script are 2.5 wide by .75 high. The embroidered logo sits about "base of the neck high" between the should blades. You shouldn't feel it, as its rather high up, but I don't want a metal badge that will poke you in the back.

Here's a pic from the ebay auction where I bought them...


Whatever badge would need a pin of some sort so I can affix and secure the badge through the suede. I'll need to puncture the material but it will be hidden.

I thought about the running pony fender emblems, but they are quite large.

I'm going for a smooth, understated look but have the power to back it up. Heritage rear, shaved decklid, Saleen SC, 440rwhp, GT500 dash panels, Bullitt wheel... looking for something conservative that fully covers the RTC stitching. My car is black, and the seats are black suede/ vinyl with silver stitching.

Thanks for your help; I'm coming up short on ideas!!

it's 4.25 wide by 1.25 tall - just measured one I bought but never put on. Might look cool - just a suggestion.

What about a gel-covered emblem for your rear fake gas cap? I've had those made before, and it would be big enough, sticky enough, and not metal so it wouldn't hurt.

I've got a couple on hand PM for info

For the PBF badges:

Do you think it would look funny, not being really symmetrical with two of the same badges?

And for the faux cap centers:
That's a good idea; I'll have to check my stock one's dimensions. I'm not sure how well adhesive would stick to suede, especially in heat.
