^exactly. Cut out the logo in something (something dense enough to hold shape). The attach it to the enclosure. Then shape the carpet around it. Make sure you use some good glue (not spray glue) to hold it in place.

Thanks guys! I'll try that today. Only thing that may present a problem is that the carpet on the box is wrapped pretty tightly and I'm afraid the carpet on the front might have some play in it if I stretch it too much.
I'll still give it a shot though.

You could always make the logo, and wrap it in carpet, and then attach the wrapped logo to the enclosure (do it from the inside and no attachments will be seen)

If you have abs plastic it works pretty good too

I thought of doing the logo in 1/4" or 1/8" balsa wood or somethign like that. Then cut the logo out of the carpet on the box and insert the carpeted logo into the cutout.

i have done it many times with .25" panel board. just cut with a jigsaw, glue it down, then stretch the carpet around with some liquid nails to hold the carpet down.
It makes a really nice effect with very little effort

A good way to do this is go to a VINYL shop have them cut the design then you put it on the material you wish to use, I like to use Dynomat. then cut the logo with a razor blade then simply stick it on the box and glue the carpet around the logo!! I would use a good glue not a spray can glue!!!
