Don't think it would look all that great. Red on Red? Won't stand out that much.

While I love the red JDM Honda badge, having that red next to Habi red would be a clash of shades of color. Nevertheless, do what you feel is right. If you do, post pics.

I have a Habi and the reason I never did this is because I could see the clash happening

i also have a haby si and i thought about the jdm badges, but i feel it wouldn't look right at all. atleast on rallye red, it would be a closer match, but not haby...

Yeah same thing, I looked at the badges and was like AWESOME! Then I though about how bad it would look on the habi. So I skipped the jdm badge route

no love for the habi red folks!

I just ordered mine for my Rallye Red coupe and I considered the same question- would it look good, red on red? of course, in my situation, the reds are close. I don't think it will stand out much on my car, but the people in the know will know, you know?

repetitiveness aside, I think your car would look fine. sure, it'd stand out a bit more, but not in a bad way. damn, the red badges are stock in japan.

I agree that almost all the civics look better with the red badges. I also don't think the red clashes too bad with the Habi color. Do you look at the Si badging and think it looks out of place? No. I figure the red badges, and the removal of the hideous chrome CIVIC badge make everything look more uniform and matching on the car. Here's some of my ride.



And a before and after of the rear of the car:
