IMO you're better off going black painted emblems like the cr s2000 emblems, than the black chrome that htg has.The difference on those from OEM is barely noticeable. They're way more chrome than they are black.

Yeah I'll probably just go to cheap route and paint the stock ones black.

I was going to go with ballade sports tct but after some research, everyone says their r&d is questionable. Same with their vtec solenoid gasket.

I'll probably just wait a week or so, and if it still doesn't work then I will start taking more drastic measures to contact him.

I'm not sure what to think about those, honestly. I bought myself a set but haven't looked at them yet. In some pics the difference doesn't seem noticeable at all, you're right. Unfortunately Deckoz deleted most of his pics in his thread but it showed him comparing the black chromes to what was on his car, and on his Spa yellow car the difference was very clear. Either choice is good, I think the black chrome tends to pop more on certain colors than others....or I'm just shot which is a very real possibility.

Apparently it's not a matter of if but when. It's good peace of mind and preventative maintenance to get it swapped out. Plus with the core refund and all that it isn't too expensive. A worthwhile investment imo; I'd call it a mandatory one for an Ap1 next to switching to AP2 valve retainers and putting in the updated oil jet banjo bolts if you have an early 02 or before.

How do you guys feel about 210 - 215 psi on all cylinders for f20 with 95k, sound about right?
