individually flip the graphic, marquee select the original, copy to new fliped image and transform it, might want to clean up (stamp/heal) the old symbol off the rim first.

try using the patch tool as well. Blend modes could help with the need for healing as well. There are quite a few ways to accomplish this, but go with Soulty’s way.
