Tampa Bay Used Auto Parts – Logo
The owners of Tampa Bay Used Auto Parts came to me with two key component they wanted in their logo. First, the focus had to be on the words “Tampa Bay” and second, they wanted the colors/appearance to reflect that of their favorite local football team.
After visiting the owners at their shop, it was clear to me that the team at TBUAP are hard-working, “get the job done” kind of guys and the logo needed to reflect just that. (This business is not for those won’t don’t like to get their hands dirty.) The rough look of the logo reflects the grittiness it takes to break down used vehicles and salvage good parts and the logotype could be used for the name of any pirate ship. The crossed pistons resemble that of a skull and crossbones giving it a “piratical” feel.
