Default custom emblem thoughts

Im going to go with an OD Sand base paint. As well, I'm going flat black on all trim.

I was thinking of making a stencil and painting on a custom logo like one of the below.

Thoughts / preferences of the below?

I think you should keep the K5 Blazer emblem on the fenders. Then just put Infidel Edition back where the Cheyenne or Silverado emblem goes.

Kinda like this

I really am liking the 2nd one but in the end it is what you like I went out and bought some duck tape and did digital camo stripes all the way down both sides and custom cut a chevy logo and put it above where it says chevrolet I think it looks pretty cool but some people might think it is stupid but anyways back on topic 2nd one

I like #1 the most. Put it in place of the original K5 Blazer emblem on the fender. Embed it in the paint, below the clear coat!

I wasn't going to do clear coat ~ the OD HumVee paint is super durable (and semi-radar retardant).
I was thinking of using either a baked on enamel or OD black (base color of OD Sand).

And I know it will be all me in the end (as 89s10 pointed out), but talking it out with fellow enthusiasts helps me to better visualize the end result.

Thanks all so far for your thoughts and opinions.
