How can i display one element on top of each other?

HI,

This is the site I'm working on, here and you see navigaiton? You see the image and title? The ICON needs a class display block, BUT, the .fa icon has soo many properties, that I can't overwrite it. Now, I'm using Sass to do this, and putting an 'I' before, well, i don't know.

How woudl you achieve the display block on dektop + on the icon?

Here's my code

// ==========================================================================
// Nav
// ==========================================================================

%nav-item {
    display: block;
    font-size: 1em;
    margin: 0;

    @include mq(medium-up) {
        float: left;
        padding-top: 0;
        padding-bottom: 0;
    }
}

%nav-link {
    color: $nav-text;
    padding: 10px 15px;
    vertical-align: middle;
    text-decoration: none;
    text-transform: uppercase;
    display: block;
    font-weight: $font-weight--light;
    transition-property: color, background-color;
    transition-duration: $nav-tran;

    @include mq(medium-up) {
        height: 88px;
    }
}

%nav-item-on {
    background: $nav-background;
    color: $white;
}

%fa {
    display: block;
}

// ==========================================================================
// Navigation
// ==========================================================================

.nav {

    @include element(item) {
        @extend %nav-item;

        @include modifier(current) {
            @extend %nav-item;

            a {
                @extend %nav-link;
                @extend %nav-item-on;
            }
        }

        a {
            @extend %nav-link;
            &:hover {
                @extend %nav-item-on;
            }
        }
    }

    @include element(icon){
        @extend %fa;
        display: block;
    }

}

.nav-collapse{
    @include mq(medium-below) {
        display: none;
    }
}
