I am after those Type R style front and rear Red honda "H" badges. Real or replica, doesnt matter. I have heard conflicting information, but i do believe that some members have such badges currently on their rides.
Where can i buy them, and if i can only get them from dealers, which ones do i buy?
Cheers.

You can get fake ones like those one on ebay or order genuine Honda ones that are around $100 each and for the Type R Civic as no Type R Fit exists. Type R Civic is not sold in Australia so part not available from Australian Honda dealers. Quality of the fake ones varies greatly. Real colour is deep blood red and make sure the H looks like the Honda H or you could end up with a type R Hyundai Jazz.
Be careful badges get stolen easily and regularly.

I was thinking of converting my car into type R, but no point considering it's slow as hell and i'm pretty sure loads of boy racers are going to try and race with me if I do.
I was however thinking of just getting the "R" so it becomes "JAZZR" (Jazzer) ;D
There is a "Type R" Jazz, over at fitfreak. some guy has changed his badges and put type r stickers on his car.

Most of the guys here get it from Hong Kong.. much cheaper.. However, I believe Tanghy used to sell them.. I can ask around if you want..

So
the front would be : 75701-S68-Z01
and the rear 75700-S5T-E01
Am I correct?
If they are genuine Honda Type-R badges, Honda Aust should be anle to source them?

If you want genuine I can order them from any Honda dealer out of Thailand but remember you won't get much change from $100 per badge (x2) + registered post.
As for copies the ones I've seen on ebay look really fake (bad copies).
You'd probably also want to change the H on the steering wheel to be red and a type R badge for the rear and possibly front grill.

yes that is true, "Type R" front and rear badge the copies are quite cheap actually and quality is ok for about $10. It the red honda badges that are a problem. I may be going over to HK in a few months so try source it from there if i can. Probably bring some small items back, big bulky things ie headlights led lights prob easier and less hassels to get here.
But Vivid, you help is much appreciated.

the rear one is so hard to take off... most ppl will try to remove the whole rear door.. but wen i did it i just snap the pins at the back of the original chrome badge... then it just fell off...
the front one..i just slowly took it off with a screw driver... didnt do any damage
