Laser etched Rx8 logo, what do you think?

So at my school we got a new laser etching machine with which we can etch any image to almost any surface. Since I have access to this equipment I figured why not? So I just took an image off of google and now I have this as my new center piece. Love it, hate it, doesn't matter to me I think it looks pretty good. But I'm intrested to hear what others think, so lets hear it!

It looks crooked in this photo but it is just the camera angle.

Sorry for the crappy pics, I just use a point a shoot.

Thanks guys. Any higher on the intensity and it would have caught fire for sure, it was smokeing and a little flame popped up twice but was quickly extinguished. But I agree, another pass probably would have helped.

heh - i was thinking "why the hell is rx8soldier speaking/typing in 3rd person?"

p.s. agreed. Laser etch > sticker
