That thread appears to be about the guy who was most recently making them for Pelican. Since Pelican can no longer get them, and the original maker hasn't visited the forum since February, I think it's safe to assume that we aren't going to be able to get them from him any time soon.

When I saw the post about Rebadge.com, I emailed them right away. Not even 15 minutes later, I got a call from Kyle who assured me he could do it.

Within the day, he showed me this and I now need your help to determine the size for the new badge. Could someone get those dimensions and perhaps post a pic next to a measuring tape, please?

Give Rebadge a chance - they are very enthusiastic and cool!

Anyone know the correct font?
I am also curious of the badge dimensions.

I got the dimensions of a factory 2.7 badge from someone here a while back. I'll look to see if I can find where I saved them. It is somewhere in the neighborhood of 1" tall by 3.75" wide.

As for font, here's a couple to peek at. The 3.5 I photo chopped from the 3.2.

Hi guys. I'm Kyle from Rebadge. Thank you Otto for the recommendation!

The font is still square because I don't have final dimensions. Once the piece is resized, it will receive all the correct radii. I render designs and will edit, change and alter until it is perfect, for each and every client.

Please feel free to email me with any questions or requests! Thanks!

Arnie: I also received a size from a client this weekend measuring 3.25" x 0.875"; similar but different. I can make them any size, so whichever dimensions are most requested, I will make it happen.

Cheers,
Kyle

Here is a 3.5 using the original Porsche font that I got from the local dealer a few years ago. It is not the same as the rest posted, but pretty sure this is a Porsche font (used on letters, not necessarily on badges of cars....). Assuming that the correct width is in fact 3.75" (this one is 3.76" wide), then the height turns out to be 0.887".

Still waiting for someone to design a "Grady Clay" badge and give the proceeds to his education cause! Make a round version of Wayne's pelican tribute. Just do something!!!

Here are the "correct" (?) dimensions.

Width = 84.45mm



Height = 21.40mm



If not using tape mount, the mounting studs need to be about ¾" in length. Height turns out to be exactly the span of two bars on the later plastic decklid grill.

Thank you for making the time to help some of us out with these photos showing the measurements!

I did the math and the length roughly equals to 3.25 inches across and .84 high. Once Kyle from Rebadge finishes mine and I get it painted to match the accents in the car, I will of course post a pic of it!
