Here's a quick rendering of an idea for a design based upon the 'CABC' monogram. I've some others roughly sketched with different themes including one with a couple of lines of an F1 car and a Brit flag inspired by the JPS Lotus era? I'll get around to modelling some of these or perhaps just scanning my pencil sketches

Very cool. I would be interested in the CABC (in black/silver

) - maybe a bit smaller so you can see more of the logo. Though I like the idea of only a portion showing.
Rumors of my demise have been greatly exaggerated.

I think there's only a little showig cause it's "BMDB" instead of "CABC"
Brian is that an old doctored picture? or do you still have an MBC??

Not guilty on the BMDB
The design actually came about by sketching something to tie the filler cap into a 'spark' and evolved into the top part of the outer 'C' of cabc...
MBC?...Actually it's not my car and I never subscribed to the MBC club anyway as ESM saved me just in time!

Yep, interested here as well, black/silver, green/yellow would suit me (just when I thought I was immune to underbonnet bling).
