Nay.

Sorry.

But you know what? It's YOUR car. If you like it leave it.

Hard to say, need a better picture -- it just looks white here. From what I imagine a polished stainless insert would look like in person, I'd say Yay, but skip the sticker. Have it etched it you want a design.

I say no as well. If you do put it on, I wouldn't go with the sticker. Its your car though, do as you like.

thanks for the input

thanks for the replys. i think the rotary emblem should be taken off like
suggested. i understand all of those who do not like it. but it does stand out even from a distance. i think a lot of cool ideas
could be thought of. it took me about 15 minutes to cut this out, it was just an experiment i just threw out, thanks joe

after seeing 2nd pic - yay. I think it's a better use of the spot than Mazda's accent.

Nay -- while it's clear you put a lot of effort into it (getting it to fit so well into the opening), it looks cheap and ricey.
