The year is 2023. Valliore, the performance division of Voltari Industries, is making their first foray into SUVs, with the first being a flagship performance-focused PHEV SUV. However, rather than design this SUV in house, Valliore executives have decided to contract the design out to other interested parties.

Inspirations
Valliore’s Designs and Logo
Above are two present day Valliores, the 2024 GTSe and the 2023 Artemis. Both are examples of Valliore’s design cues and design touches. However, these are more specific examples-
First, all modern Valliores have blacked out A-pillars, and the roof is rounded off at the top of the windshield.
Second, modern Valliores have typically used Silvia’s McLaren grilles for their front fascias. The GTSe is using the one shown in the second screenshot, but any of those can be used. However, if you want to do something completely different for the front fascia, that’s fine too.
Finally, the Valliore badge. It’s made from two of the highlighted fixtures in Silvia’s RB Insanity mod, recolored to solid white, aligned in opposing directions on their flat sides. These are scaled to 0.18, but you can go slightly larger or slightly smaller as needed.
How To Make The Badge-
Step 1:
Take the above fixture from RB Insanity, scale it to 0.18x0.18 (slightly larger or slightly smaller is okay) and paint it solid white, then Shift + Click to clone it in place.
Step 2:
Use the “Flip Horizontally” toggle to flip the second fixture around in place.
Step 3:
Then, use the “Flip Vertically” toggle to flip the second fixture again.
Step 4:
Finally, move the flat side of the second fixture against the flat side of the first fixture, and move it downwards about halfway. After that, the badge is complete.
