Default Progress - Door emblem

Gentleman - Thanks for the positive feedback. Just rec'd the passenger door emblem from M-Squad today. It turned out great and special thanks to Dave for his help with getting the right size one. From a size perspective, it was smaller than one used on the full size cars. The Minnesota State Patrol only had a passenger side emblem on their SSP's and in some cases it actually was a magnetic emblem interestingly enough.
In that spirit my emblem is on magetic backing so it can be added for display in car shows and removed for driving to/from events. In all but one of the photos I've seen, Minnesota cut down the bottom of the emblem to fit between the side molding and the passenger window trim. In doing so they removed pointed tip the bottom side of their emblem would normally have.

Always stressful cutting down emblems to fit and fortunately built upon my positive outcome on the Missouri SSP door shield...the Minnesota one was successful too!

I expect the equipment install phase to be completed Saturday. I'll of course to be sure to update and share photos. To see photos of the emblem on the door see link below...
