When I first saw this amazingly gorgeous car in front of me at a red light I thought it was cool, but when I noticed the "H" on it, my pulse started racing. I've always loved Hondas and I was seeing a high-end Honda sportscar! I figured it ran about $60,000 by the looks of it. Man, that "H" will always be displayed proudly on my car.

Changing the carpet console on the 2000-2001 models, or adding a leather shift boot are one thing. These things are cosmetic items that don't really change the identity of the car.

However, when you remove a manufacturers badge and replace with another badge it strikes me the same way as taking the GEO off your Metro and replacing it with a MB 3-point star. Just a bit ricey.

The only reason I could see for taking off badges it to make waxing easier. Meaning, no badges whatsoever. I know I have considered replacing my H symbols with the Berlina Black ones they sell on H&A for this very reason!

Being honest. I don't want to come off as disparaging Rick or his products. I have several items from his company and am very satisfied. I think the value of his products has been demonstrated over the years, with the biggest 'compliment' having Honda take a few of his ideas!

It all boils down to personal choice I suppose.

honestly, i think i'd only consider replacing the badges with genuine red Hs. i think it looks really good on berlina black. it'd look great on white too though. the 'S' badges are nice, but i just don't think they're my style.
