red emblems or silver/white emblems
 
which should i get? the white is kinda silverish so it would match but the red would accent the tails. any thoughts?

i never really saw the white ones before, do you have pics of both of them so we can see and compare

those are so ricey. i got red ones and sold em cause they ruined the look of my car. i say either no emblems like me or keep the chrome.

MajinB 01-23-2006 08:06 PM

i have none in the front. i have the H on the back though. i want one or the other.

dp_yz713 01-23-2006 08:06 PM

eh, i would say if you dont want it to stand out too much and flow with your car go with silver, but if you want it to grab attention a little get the red. im not sure..........

everything is gone except the RS on the grill and the back H. i don't want to shave my trunk. i tried stock. it lasted 3 months after i got the car:D

silver for sure.. red and silver ew.

I have not seen this tried so I'm not sure how it'd look (I'm sure the word rice will be thrown at me). try using some metalcast paint by duplicolor in red. just paint the chrome so it looks andodized red

everybody flame away

MajinB 01-23-2006 10:07 PM

in case you didn't know, i suck at painting. im re-doing some stuff right now as i learn. not an option sorry

idk its up to you.

mikemal 01-23-2006 11:01 PM

go silver. the red is way too tacky/rice.

only my opinion.

yuogotown3d 01-24-2006 12:24 AM

stock but maybe the silver would look nice on the car?

ddevil0013 01-24-2006 01:16 AM

i have my red one for the back that i'll never use..i'll give it to you if u wanna pay shipping..it probably isnt sticky anymore, but you can use double sided tape

dru106 01-24-2006 01:19 AM

As you can see, the quality in that pic. The red one is an OEM Honda one like an ITR but the white one is the cheap crappy stuff. I would get the red OEM Honda factory......

they are different angles. pics were only an example. both colors would have the chrome like reflective finish for the H part.

mugenman 01-24-2006 01:55 AM

just my 2 cents. alot of punk kids wll see the red and jack it. id go stock or just paint ur stock emblem. or even like gear box no emblem at all.

MajinB 01-24-2006 02:24 AM

the point of this was to add the emblems to my no emblem problem.
I AM GETTING SOMETHING i just don't know which yet. ill sleep on it starting now.

genexrocket 01-24-2006 03:11 AM

keep it stock silver !!

n_flow 01-24-2006 04:55 AM

i say go stock or none as well, people around my neighborhood jack those emblems =X

Cptn. Slow 01-24-2006 09:57 AM

that's too bad you don't want to paint. I was wondering what that would look like. I'd do it but nothing would go well w/ my color

ill humor you. what color should i paint them? SSM? they are already chromed. red maybe? it would look kinda wierd. idk

01-24-2006 12:38 PM

I'm gonna try the red metalcast paint. I know, I know "shut up, ricer n00b". I've never seen it, so I wouldn't mind being a pioneer in my area. If it sucks, I can just buy another OEM one. I'll post pics when she's done.
