Black "JDM" Emblems

**J-Ro** · 04-25-2007, 12:51 PM

I've been looking around for a while, and never really found anything. I like the look of the JDM style emblems because they're completely smooth, but I think red would look crappy on ABM, so I'm looking for ones that are black instead of red. I know there are cheap eBay knock-offs, but finding those in the right size would be difficult. A reputable seller would be better than eBay.
If anyone knows, please let me know!
Thanks!

I would also be interested in these, will be checking on this thread for any purchasing info. Mine is ASM as well and I think black would look smokin'!
Help us!!! lol

You guys are like me. I also have a ASM FA5 and dont want to do red. I am getting the s2000 Honda emblems. U can get them under exterior accessories for the s2k at college hills honda. It is a little pricey, but whatever. I havent ordered mine, cuz I need to make sure it will fit first....

you might be able to get away with the jdm black H from a s2k for the reas but i dont think they make a big enough one for the front ends

I'm interested in this too. IDK about red on my TW SI, but I think black would look great!

Red on TW is absolutely stunning. Get it.

Check the JDM emblem thread for pics. I think those emblems look the best on TW actually!

I like the idea of a black emblem, but I'd want to do it to the front as well. Hmph...

Yeah, that's primarily why I want it. I don't like the "inset" background of the stock emblem. It's a pain to clean in there when washing the car, and I think something completely flat would just plain look better :)
And red + atomic blue = fugly

AMEN to FullyFlared and repped.

The red emblems on TW are the best out of any car color you can get them on

aria3 · 04-25-2007, 06:11 PM

they look good on nhbp too.

***Sleepy*** · 04-25-2007, 06:13 PM

I am with you J-Ro, I feel the red would look silly on my ride. If i can find the black ones it would be awesome.

**J-Ro** · 04-25-2007, 06:15 PM

Looks like more people than I thought are interested... now where to find them? Somebody must know.....

***Fully Flared*** · 04-25-2007, 06:15 PM

Spraypaint + Clearcoat on JDM emblem FTW? lol

LOL nah, just really REALLY carefully tape off the H... that would be insanity to get perfect, and then spray away.

Bad solution to our problem though, haha

There has got to be a black/chrome logo emblem SOMEWHERE, come on cheap knock-off guys, where you at when we need you?

I do a fair bit of graphic art, airbrushing and such, so I might have actually considered that, but I think there's a thick clear top layer in the emblem which would make the black look like it's "floating" over the red I think. That would end up looking weird, and I'd probably get flamed for defacing a JDM badge :)

Haha yeah just keep searching, if it comes down to it then airbrushing and some kind of spraypaint would prolly work though, Oh and I'm pretty sure you can peel that plastic layer off

Juve_2006 · 04-25-2007, 07:04 PM

you beat me to it, i was actually gonna ask the same question for black emblems, well hopefully someone sells them

Rubbing alcohol for the clear coat over the red? haha. I just want those black emblems. Would look so much better on my GG than red ones.

Dark.GEAR · 04-25-2007, 08:40 PM

man...black ones would be nice...but i think their gonna be too much $$$ and time to be worth it....paying about $100 for a color and then repainting it...

i'm interested if they're priced right....and no $100 IMO is not priced right....

Relentless00 · 04-25-2007, 08:51 PM

Well if the JDM ones are 85 for both I would hardly think that black ones would be 100 each haha
If anything cheaper just cause someone repainted stock emblem

Im lucky cause on my NHBP the red ones look sicker than black would IMO
