Sure!
If it real carbon people want then great, and in theory other designs can be made-up also

These look great. Let me know when you are ready to take orders for your first batch of PZ centre caps !!
Edit: I really had to look closely between the old ones and new ones to see the difference in the "by", that's come out really well.

Do you mean "by" still look wrong? or looks as good as the original?

What I meant was I think the "by" is still a little different, but not enough for me to notice unless I was holding both side by side and looking closely. So I think it's really good. I know you said the "by" had to be a bit bigger at the printers, but for me it's close enough that I would be very happy. If you look at the original it has some weird font with a very flat 'b' and a squashed 'y', the new "by" actually maybe looks a bit better....

Wondering if any of you clever buggers can put logos into a eps file?
Iv contacted the printer regarding 40th anniversary and a rotor logo, and he is asking about a file otherwise its lots of computer work

Normal rotor is also cool. Id try to help you with the file type but... I'm not very knowledgeable in vector graphics.
