That logo is beautiful. I think I'll reverse the color for my red car and have the Z in mostly red on the black leater with the silver outline. Katzskins?

Barracuda red is the actual name of black/red perforated leahter for the inserts with red stitching. Sound OK? This is an irrevocable changer to the car (although I'm keeping the old cloth covers) and I've never done this before. I just don't want to harm my beautiful new toy.

IF there is no problem using a single letter "Z", I would be glad to try a few ideas out for you with that letter in Photoshop. I'm not a great designer, but it IS one of the major aspects of my job for the government. And I currently work for a small-time label doing album art and advertising design outside my regular government job.

Free, of course.

Sure! Red with silver outline against black leather would be my preference. A "restrained" Z would be preferred.

red on black will look good. I will have to look moer closely but I think the "Z" is stitched.

By restrained, I assume you mean NOT a lot of flair...just a little. NOT a wild and crazy Z but not just block letters.

Well, sneaked in a little bit of time at work... There's a crazy Z in there

But, very quickly, your color choice (with and without) a circle:

(Hate, Like, Meh... just say so)
