That'd be sick on the shift ****.

Funny stuff none the less.

Might have to creep your decepticon idea but as a domed vinyl like you did with this badge. Although I'm kinda liking the idea of m|u logo on there.

We measured out the circle itself and cut those out of black avery 5yr vinyl, then went into signpro and I made up the shocker symbol, cut that out of avery 5yr electric silver vinyl. Weeded them both out, put some clear transfer tape on the shocker, aligned the shocker into the center of the black circle, then applied them both at once to the existing badging. Then we cracked open another beer and laughed, while enjoying our 30 minutes and $4 worth of hard work.
