Hi Art, for the project method, you can use Edit >Trim to cut the surface up into separate surface fragments, and then extrude the surface fragment. See here for some links to examples:

For the Flow method I would need to see your .3dm model file to be able to help with that.

Eggxellent Michael, worked like a charm and thankyou for the links. All that I needed to modify was the seem location on the surface below the letter "A" as it broke the ability to extrude the "A". I simply rotated the main tire 45° and proceeded with the trim procedure.

Looking ready to hit the road! :D
