Cutting out a hole

You just would need the cut along Y axis and bridge the faces to get the hole.

You should have noticed the rim near from where you extruded the badge are straight line (edge), but it should be curved as the rest of the rim.

Exactly, micheus. I just noticed when I tried to create lines, they get all weird. It might be difficult to even make a nice hole, and making the two holes symmetric will even be harder.

Maybe I should just use start over using this one as a template and as you said, extruding the left and right "wing".

A quick question when were at it. If the pieces of the badge are merged, will I be able to texture the two wings and the central piece with induvidual colors, or should the left and right wing be separated from the central piece? I have no idea how texturing works so I hope you don't mind me asking because I don't want to do it all over again
