Default How to cover the badge holes?

I have a 03 and took off the emblems and now there are 2 holes. I thought they were on with double side tape, I guess I was wrong.


I like the clean look with the badges off.

See the below post.

'License plate bolt cover holes'

Hope that is what you're looking for.


EDIT Ignore this post, you're talking about the emblem and not the license plate cover sorry.

do you want another badge (for example, i have the ricks badges on my car cause they are more subtle than the "h", and there are other badges out there too) or do you want to know how to do the body repair to patch and paint the holes?

i understand that you want the clean look, but you just might change your mind if you havent done body work before!

Well I went out and bought a pair of license plate hole covers and modified them to fit where the badges were. From far away the covers blend in but up close you can see them of course.


I guess this will have to do for now.

I think you should have bought some of these and glued them on:

You'd be the only kid on the block with them.

If your car is silver, buy some duct tape.

nope- side badges do not have holes under them...
i replaced mine with black chrome s2000s
and replaced the front and back with ricks

the only problem with taking them off is that if you change your mind its a real pia to get them back on in the right place. the helms manual has the measurements, but it is really hard to get them back on right. when i changed mine, i taped where the old ones came off of so it was really easy to put the new ones on.

very subtle difference- this is what the black chromes look like:

Rick's doesn't have anything for the Sebring brotherhood though

I should clarify, Rick's doesn't have any hood/trunk badges for the Sebring brothers. He does have rim badges in Sebring.

Hartopguy has listing for the H emblems but for 00 and 01' only. Can't these still be used on 02+ models?
