Bart - Can you also do the reverse?

I want to see what the word "kakumei" (hope that's right) would look like.

While I lack Bart's Kanji-decrypting ability, I know that symbol. It's a magnet they give to first year drivers in Japan as a warning to others. It's become the new JDM tyte fad to put them on your "drifter." :)

It's warning that the driver is a beginner and please go around. They have an orange and yellow teardrop-shaped one for old people, I have one of those on my car with the kanji kaizo "modified" on it. It's to warn people that I am old but I ain't normal or slow;)
