Same thing happened to me last winter. I'm guessing it happened at the mall. *sighs*, ppl don't have any respect these days. I mean, what the heck can you do with an emblem? Wear it around your neck with a chain? I'm guessing someone lost their's and took mine to replace it. Whoever did it, did it cleanly with no scratches. I'm lucky on that part at least. I got a new emblem from my friend who work's at corporate Honda in Torrance for about $11. Sorry it happened to you.

haha, i seriously thought about becoming an emblem theif tonight. we were at the movies and afterwards we were walking around and i spotted a huge aluminum wing. closer insepction revealed that the accord had a wing higher than the roof, an unpainted aftermarket front bumber and a dented-up back bumber and all the emblems were shaved off and 4 exhaust tips sticking out the back and it had stock wheels. but the kicker was the type R emblem on the back. i wanted to rip it off and throw it through the windshield...

Wow what is the world coming to, crazy stuff right there. Some people just need to get a life, but a stock one I don't see the use in one. You take the chance of getting caught stealing for just a emblem? I would feel like a idiot getting nailed for that.

Any good ways of avoiding them getting ripped off, without shaving them. Eg Epoxy, or maybe that would cause more damage than if it wasnt glued on, if they persist at trying to remove it.

Anyone who steals emblems are stupid. I think shaving is the best way to go. Emblems are like trophies and whoever steals them keeps em. I stole someones keys before and I still have em.

No, what's really bad is someone keeps stealing my air valve caps. I used to have those silly H's from Honda but the back 2 got taken. Then today I noticed someone took the ONE front one and the other back2 I had put on to replace the already stolen ones. Grrrrr [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-mad.gif[/IMG]
