Default Black Honda badges

I'm looking for black Honda badges (My dealer says no go). Wondering which one's might readily fit the S. LMK.

Thios is where i ordered mine from hardtopguy.. I know it's pricey but what emblems aren't pricey. For the s2000 it's actually "Black Chrome" and looks great.

Keep in mind though that these are smaller than the OEM s2000 emblems. The OEM ones are larger in size front and back. The Black Chrome emblems are originally for 1999-2002 Honda Accords, thats why they are smaller. I got mine to fit though and used a bid of #m tape for extra security.
I Just came across this to for you, I mean it includes the Accord emblem but you can just use the "H" emblems and you'll be set plus they are way cheaper than the first two links i posted. Hope this helps man..

have you ever thought of taking off your stock emblems and painting them? seems to be the most obvious. if you do it right it should last quite a long time.

Yeah i have. And i guess I didn't sand it down good enough cause the damn paint kept chipping and cracking. So i ended up ruining 2 sets of emblems from the dealer. Wasted money. I guess fail on my end cause i didn't do it right. :-(

But you're right. That is the most logical thing to do, is paint them yourself.

What he said. I used this stuff on both my EG and our Fit and will use it on the S2000 I am getting. Just clean the emblems and make sure they are dry. No sanding hell you don't even have to take them off the car. I have washed both my card several times as well and this has held on just fine.

That looks cool. I have smoked amber markers and black powder coated exhaust. My car is currently debagded but if I had $80 to spend on a badge I'd have the black. Looks really nice.

Just plasti dipped my emblems and wheels. They look dark in that pic thanks to the shadow. Here is a close up of the wheel.

It is great because you can just peel it off if you want to go back to stock.
