Just a thought but you could probably have one made pretty reasonably. It's pretty basic. You could probably hand paint it yourself.

 That would be easy on my plasma table !!

Lots of stock logos here----->  http://www.brandsoftheworld.com/search/logo?search_api_views_fulltext=bmw

Thanks for the suggestions...

Funny enough, I owned / operated a sign shop for 12 yrs....hand lettering, gold leaf, carving, sandblasting and vinyl......

Fairly simple to  reproduce but I would prefer an original sign.....

I see these signs near the side of the road all the time. You could just grab one of those - they're in most of the big cities and I've never seen anyone using them!

Chris,

Still have everything....still do some vinyl, etc for friends now and then...not worth getting rid of, really good to use the software/plotter for making spray/paint masks....and other stuff.. Made a couple of 2' long BELL helmet signs for the shop...

Sandblaster get used for car stuff now, and all my guilding supplies/tools are packed away for future "brilliant ideas"....lol

T-Bucket is gone now.....working on a couple of bike projects/restorations....still on the hunt for that "right" new hotrod project..

Ash...

A bit off subject, but most of the files I find like the one I posted from "Brands of the World" are in .EPS format.
This is a PITA for me because I need a .DXF format. Do you guys have any programs that can convert these files??
I usually just open the .EPS file and re-trace the lines which is time consuming.

I HATE converting files.....

My program takes .plt files.....and the program can inport/convert from a variety of extensions but just into .plt   And if the original file wasnt saved properly as (eps, etc) it sometimes wont work....yes, a real PITA....

Generally quicker an less hassle to re-draw...

 Got this from another forum. I don't know if it will help:

"Google Gsview and download it. It might do the job for you. Once you open it, go to Edit menu>Convert to vector format and convert your EPS file to dxf. You will have to rename the converted file to whatever.dxf. Then you can open and edit it in acad"
