Hey, I've been looking for months to try to find one of these things:
And I haven't had any luck. I have a 2nd hand yellow de-badged Stella 4t and I need some badges, and I love that font. In fact, my goal is to (affordably) make a Stella version of this bike: https://www.flickr.com/photos/greentree ... 7147805496
So, any advice on finding a similar seat and racing stripes is also very appreciated.
Does anyone have an extra laying around, or know somewhere that might?
I disagree. The Stella is built with the same boxy 80's P-series motif, so to me the script "Stella" logo looks out of place. If a Stella was as curvy as a classic 60's era Vespa then it would fit. The Vespa designers chose that font for a reason. The Stella isn't 60's Classic, it's 80's Classic.
Anybody want to go in on an order of these badges? Someone posted up the vector of the badge on Stella Speed a while back and there are plenty of custom emblem makers out there. I was also thinking of something like S150X, ST150, or S150E for the cowls, like the P150X/PX150 on the P series.

I would go for 150_4T.
If you ever get these together, let me know.
I am down let me know, all of my Stella emblems have fallen off. I used to do a little graphic design work on the side as well if you need help.

I'd go for a few sets. There was a user on StellaSpeed (now ScooterCentral) who drove production of the last batch. Maybe they could offer some guidance in bringing them back?
I'd also be willing to help front production costs, just to see them get done.
At what point does a hobby become an addiction? I'm uncertain, but after the twelfth scooter, it sorta feels like the latter...
The hard part with the design will be getting the font right, anybody know a font that is pretty close? I have access to Adobe Illustrator at college.
And if there isn't enough interest to do enough chrome badges for a reasonable price, would anyone be interested in vinyl decals instead? They won't look as good, of course, but they are much more reasonably priced for small orders.
