JDM emblems: got the front, but what about the back?

So today at the Kami Speed meet in Orlando FL I bought the front and rear JDM emblems. Took me like 20 minutes to install the front on and then I go to install the rear on and the guy gave me one for a DC5?!?! I go back in and talk to him and he tells me to just break off the pins. It's not even the same size WTF? Oh well what ever he did a return it was cool

but what do you guys think now?




and where is the cheapest place to get the rear emblem online?

On another thread on this site, there are instructions for installing these. It says that they are slightly larger and you do need to break off the pins. Looks good though!

apparently the front red H for an 02-03 EP3 CTR is a better size for the rear of our cars. still have to break off the 2 pins but there is double sided tape on it.

I bought mine off ebay. The prices have raised since then but you can get them separately there.

The 02-03 ep3 front emblem is really close to the rear FG2 emblem in size. I have that emblem on my car right now.

I'm runnning the 04-05 EP3 CTR front emblem for the front & the 02-03 EP3 CTR front for the rear. The front one is almost a perfect match but the rear one is like 1/8th of an inch bigger. Yes, you do have to break off the pins.

I'm curious to know how there are "JDM" FG2 emblems since there are no FG2's in the JDM market.

Call Showstoppers to order the red emblems separately.
