Maybe check this out. Not sure about a single color but maybe they could do something else on request.

Edited:
seems I copied nearly everything that had already been said and posted! Personally I think that spoiler bird would look weird there, mainly as never seen it done. But here's some more ideas of the same theme if he just has to have it in an unusual colour, but expect the quality to be not that of PG or S&S:

Alternative ideas in any colour, generally one:

But if you use that bird, straight also. The SE birds decals are almost the same in height and width so can get away with the tilt to match the B pillar more, hard to say, I think the incorrect bird will be noticed before the angle!

They always looked too big to me. check out this car Brett sold for a friend a few yrs ago. They looked bigger in person too.

Ooh don't like that, stands out as wrong decal and the angle doesn't work, gives the slapped on look.

And no offence to the guys doing the work, it's prob top notch and often as asked by owners, but it stands out to those who spend too much time on these things! I prefer the small red emblem, obviously a gold SE bird wouldn't work with a blue hood bird!
