Mirroring Bodies With Logo Cut

[MikeInSoCalif]

I have a solid body that I want to mirror, but the source body has a logo that I want to use on the second body. When I mirror about a plane, the logo on the second body now reads backwards. Any thoughts on overcomming this issue? The logo is cut into a imported solid, so I dont have the geometry for it.

turn the cut in the imported solid into a sketch.

Use Insert --> Face --> Delete to delete the logo from the mirrored copy, then add a new logo.

Looks like im going to have to do a combination of both suggestions. Delete the face, then convert entities of the logo, mirror the sketch, and then cut the new logo.
