Would this look good?
 
I was thinking about getting an emblem to replace the stock H. It would be the white one in the pic below (back). Would the car still look clean, or rice? I just wanted the back to look a bit less plain, but not too crazy.

Dont get white emblem.

gotti 11-05-2003 08:50 PM

yeah, i regret it. I want a black or CF one for my car.

guamcivic2k1 11-05-2003 08:51 PM

i like the silver one...

gearbox 11-05-2003 08:53 PM

So which one should I get? Or just leave it stock? The white one would at least blend in a bit.

white2K2EX 11-05-2003 09:37 PM

Go with gray or black.

InanimateCarbonRod 11-05-2003 09:40 PM

I personally prefer the stock one over the ones with color in the middle; but that's just me.

MiamiUgen7 08-28-2005 12:04 PM

shaved > all

Robb989 08-28-2005 01:27 PM

go with RED 100%, that will look very nice.

cbags05 08-28-2005 01:35 PM

Could somebody post what the shaved looks like? And does that mean you literally shave it? With a razor?

gearbox 08-28-2005 01:37 PM

i just posted a pic above. Shaved means all emblems/keyhole taken off.

If it were me I'd feel a little funny doing red because that's been a type R thing...only do red if you have a type R engine. Otherwise go black or grey. Adds a little flavor without looking completely rice.

Ah I see. Yes I like that too.

cbags05 08-28-2005 01:41 PM

How do you get rid of the holes in the panels when you do the shaved look?

Yeah, I would recommend using a Mach 3 Razor and Gillette shaving cream for the closest possible shave and clean look.

But on a side note, OMG that has to be the biggest n00b question I have ever heard :hithead: :roflmao:

drew22mader 08-28-2005 01:54 PM

Yea, i heard about that razor being good. Just make sure you shave with the grain and not against it.


But in all seriousness, if you want the clean look just shave the emblems, shaving the trunk will require body work and paint. But if you don't care about then its cool.

joescivic02 08-28-2005 02:04 PM

^^ lol red will look wierd man.........id go gray if anything...

joescivic02 08-28-2005 02:05 PM

unlless you can find a honda emblem and sand down the points and paint it black...... thatd be clean! and double side tape it with 3m
