fonts are everything

Hi,

I'm finishing a logo design,
the name of the company is westside (based on the french west coast).
the client is hesitating between two variants (linked).
he prefers the one with the classic W, that is more easyly readable.
but I really prefer the one with the vertical bars, (some kind of W). I thought I could design/find a font that would fit this vertical W, but alas, I'm stuck...

anybody got an idea ?

I really like the logo with vertical bars, for multiple reasons, but I have no type to match with it. I've been searching some font with a w looking like those vertical bars, I did not find. I've even tried to design one, but thats not so easy at it seemed.

then I've design another logo with the modified V.A.G w (that you've recognized imediately ) but I don't like it so much, I thought you could help finding that font with vertical bars... can you ?
