EG civic rear emblem

[civicuser]

i have an 93 civic coupe and i was wanting to put some red emblems on it. the problem is, the rear emblem (stock has a weird curved shape to it, unlike the EK civic. I was thinking about shaving the "H" off the curved piece and sticking a red emblem on, but i thought i might ask someone here first.

My $0.02 - remove all emblems & stickers // trim & moulding - thats looks so much better. You could also remove your emblems & get them powder coated red if you want.

Does anybody know if I pull off the emblems, will there be a hole - like on some other cars I've seen?

[BullShifter]

yes

Hmmm, in that case, if I wanted to paint the emblems, would you suggest taking it in to a paint & body shop?

Take the emblem off, paint a peice of plastic red, gule the plastic to the back of the emblem, use double stick tape to attach the emblem to the car. Check mine out on the site in my sig if you want to see my "custom red emblem"

civicuser: I love your sig!

Take it to a place that does powder coating

I called around, but most places say that they can't do plastic (called Honda & they told me the emblems were made of some kind of strong plastic). Anybody ever try painting the emblems?
