I am happy with the result. There is a black line accross the badge due to the head going through it, but I removed it by sanding it. Maybe I should play with the z-hop setting.

Looks to me like you swapped at the end. Try printing it face down first the black lines and then the white around it. You get a really cool flat surface.
You need to subtract the lines from the white form. Make sure your z hop is higher than 2 layers.
