Default SG tank emblems

Whats up everyone.
I've been thinking about replacing my tanks emblems. I currently have the stock silver emblems and was thinking of replacing them with a nice air brushed or even a vinyl stick on. Below is what i was thinking, first picture is what i have, the second is what i was thinking. What does everyone think about this? Thanks.

I have a friend that does very good air brush work, we were talking about this the other day, He made up a few different designs that came out really good. I just might do it, but i was hoping for a bit more feedback on this before i did it, im not good at matching up color combination.

Warm up the decal with hair dryer, use fishing line to saw thru the 3m tape, clean up with wd-40.
here is mine, looking for a tank badge.

When I was first told that the new SGS was going to have stripping similar to the Road Glide, I was hoping the tank badging would be like the RG also. It isn't. If I were to redo my tank badging I would use the RG style.
