Jason,

when I was checking out the red car on the local dealer I had a good llok at the badges - they will look very sweet on a Silverstone car!

Check this link out though:

Modacar (site sponsor)

They will ship over-seas with a prepaid IMO. They are charging $19 a piece for badges... don't know if they are up to Honda OEM quality though.

They also have Mugen Power decals!

My only concern with these would be whether they were the same size as the UK ones, I seem to remember the US guys saying their badges were smaller than the UK ones, otherwise its a reasonable price but after shipping and poss import tax it wouldnt be far off the price Honda UK want.

True enough, especially with the cost of an IMO etc. etc. I was just showing a comparisson against the price RM Racing wanted

The UK spec ones do look very nice in the flesh, if you get a set I'd love to see them on your car (it'd probabaly tip me over the edge of purchase too! )

OK, so I'm one of the guys that was looking for the UK or JDM red emblem. The reason I was wanting one of "your" emblems is that I think the ones that Modacar offers is a less expensive knockoff badge where the color part is a semi-transparent plastic piece that tends to fade with time. I see these on Civics and other Hondas and they don't age well. Anyway they are probably the same quality as the ones that STEVE0163 has.

Cheers!
