question about rear jdm red badge.....

i just bought the rear jdm badge from another member on the site. i compared it to the original H that is on my car and i noticed its quite a bit smaller, so now i am almost thinking he didnt sell me the right one... could someone please just take a ruler and go measure their jdm red H emblem for the rear (coupe) and just let me know how many inches it should be accross?? thanks. btw mines about 2.25"..........

I dont know why Honda made their H's different sizes on the coupe and sedan. You think it'd be easier to leave them the same.

If I remember correctly, the JDM badge is smaller than the OEM silver ring.

But, I just ran down for the hell of it, my rear FG2 JDM badge is 3.50" across and 2.75" high.

it was from someone on here. i bought it last week and recieved it yesterday. i wasnt going to put it on right away, but when i took it out of the package i noticed it was real small so i went outside to compare and it didnt look right. so i searched the site for a measurement but i couldnt find any, which is why i had to create this thread.

Mine rear one is smaller then the stock. I think it's like that for just about everyone on here.

yeah i have a coupe. i know its smaller than i stock, but not half the size. it measures just over 2.25" long and just over 2" tall. and as mabuz mentioned, thats smaller than his and i am guessing he has the correct one on there

Honest mistake by chance? It appears he did have it on his car.He sold a boat load of stuff so I'm assuming he's no longer in a civic.
