    Arrow Stupid Question about Emblems

    I was thinking about getting myself some of those Red Honda emblems, but a good question was asked.
    How are the stock emblems attached?
    I looked and looked and could not tell
    I am aware that the aftermarket emblems are attached with adhesive, but im not sure about the stock ones....
    Somebody help me out.

    They are just held on with adhesive as well. The little holes are just to make sure they are straight. Just pry the emblems off and get some sticker remover and remove all the old adhesive.
    No projects. Life consumes my time and money.

    oh ok, i've seen the nice red ones on ebay before. i remember someone sold some that were made with the H's that were from the 3gee. the newer ones are more rounded if you didnt notice. i like the older style ones myself.

    When I took mine off I just took some floss and put it behind the emblem and "flossed" the emblem off, this way they come off in one piece, then removed the left over residue with sticker remover.

    The flossing technique sounds great, but im horrible at fabrication so ill just go with the newer rounded ones, i do agree tho i would love a set made from a 3gee emblem.... Btw HostileJava, is that vinyl on your grille and headlight cover??
