Creating an ///MKV or ///MK5 Badge

M5 badge with a second M cut to look like a V when flipped upside down.... ?

I would totally buy a badge if it was black/carbon or if the M stripes had the toyota TRD colors

For those following along, I've taken a punt on some Aliexpress ///M Badges and (hopefully) matching K/V/5 lettering in both chrome and black. Total cost was $9AUD so if it doesn't work out I'll get over it.

I'll post images when I get them.

I reached out and sent Yoast Fabrication the (very rough) example below, suggesting that the K and V need to exactly match an original BMW ///M badge, finished in identical chrome.

These could either just be additional letters (requiring the purchase of an original ///M badge) or a complete set.

For the record, I have no idea what font BMW are using, I just skewed Helvetica bold and the result isn't terrible to my eyes.

Thoughts?

If you're going to do it, the stripes should match the red, orange, and yellow from the original toyota logo

Yes

You can also have the K and V be molded together into one symbol as well.

I think the V part should be colored differently for people to notice. Otherwise just looks like a fancy K

What if you remove 1 stripe and use black and red stripes. Then take the MKV combo letters and change it to GR for Gazoo Racing.

Something like this:

In all seriousness though, I like where this is headed.

Make the V solid and I think we have a solution

This looks decent. I would just need to render it in 3D.

Love it. Why not show some love for the contract manufacturer? courtesy of your best friends in Osterriche, with love from Graz...

That does looks pretty cool but would want the letters unjoined. Hmm.

I agree on the letter separation. Cobb and Burger (JB4) sell emblems with separate letters for like $20. I’m curious as to why it’s so hard to find a supplier for something like this (haven’t tried searching myself, FWIW).

I have a rough idea that I wanted to make in a sticker for my fenders, but never got 100% on how the font looks. Tried a couple of time, but never found a font that I like. I'll post it here in case that it brings inspiration to anyone.

Would love this as a sticker too
