I had the emblem off at first, then tried the offset look. At first I liked it, but recently it started to look "weird" so I took it off again.
The mesh material is some sort of sheet metal and has started to rust a bit (got the piece free from school workshot). I'll sand and paint it soon (when I get a chrome ring to replace the current wrecked one). Any recommendations on colour? I think chrome or silver might be too bright, but I liked the bronzish colour the mesh sheet was originally.
