Default thinking about glassing over ford emblem.. what do you think?

as some of you may know, i am in the process of flat blacking my car..
i have filled the trunk key hole, the radio antenna hole, and the ford emblem on the hatch holes and glassed over them...

im not sure i like the blue oval just stuck in the middle of the front bumper cover the way it is..
im thinking about just pulling it off, and filling the hole behind it..

or maybe getting a different emblem that is black and white or something...

what do you guys think?

i hope to have this car sprayed by wednesday

im glassing a lot of mine. im going to delete the "mustang" on front and back. 5.0stanger had his done on his build up so you can actually see what it looks like. i might also shave the handles down too.

i've been playing around with the idea of deleting the mouldings. with rounding the groove out of making it flat across. you think thats a bad idea?

personally i say do it, remove what you've suggested. a new emblem would be sweet too or nothing at all.
