Thanks for the quick answer. Here is what i have.

FG2 - that's what I ordered (and told them it was for the coupe); invoice says FG2... Coupe

Part number - on bag for front emblem is 75700-S5T-E01

Fit - after removing pegs on back, I simply held the emblem to the surface on the decklid and there is quite a difference. Emblem, which is flatter, rocks back and forth on the deck lid by a very noticeable amount. I've worked in the industry for decades as an engineer and this isn't exactly rocket science. This kind of fit would never come from and OEM... especially Honda.

While I can't find it now, I have run across an end view photo on this forum of a rear emblem that was a recognized "no fit" and mine looks the same.

Trading emails with jdmland now, but their initial assumption is that I don't know what the hell I'm talking about. A little disappointing.

Would help if anyone could check out the part number on the bag.

I really don't want to drop $100 bills several times over and find that nothing fits.

Thanks for your help.
