	When I was finished with the soldering process, I clipped of the pin from the battery holder that was sticking out from the backside of the PCB. But only the top one. The one pin below that I bend to make it look like a door handle.

	As a last step I cut out green, orange, red and blue crafting foil in the shape of the sirenlights, the headlights, the car doors and the hood of the car. I stuck the foil onto the board and with this my badge is finally complete. Now it has all the colors I wanted it to have but I could not create, due to the limited option of layers and colors.
