That's the biggest Dis I have seen on this board recently. Man...people have no respect for this emblem when they see it. Don't listen to this guy. He has no idea what the history of this emblem entails. That emblem was the long lost badge that once made Soichiro Honda who he was and what his company is now. I heard this badge was lost in the midst of the thick forest on Mount Fuji in Japan and possessed secret power that can transform any Honda engine into a 3.0 V10 with rev to 19,500 rpm. I heard that badge can also make you grow taller and have a more robust lobido. A must have for anyone who wants a faster evo and better sex life.

I agree with everyone who's said go for it! It's original and if you cut it well I think it'd look nice!

its just a badge...i think ill go with the cheap option...especially since he said hes good at making things look professional...i think i'd go with a 25 dollar "ghetto" badge and cut it out professionally and put it on...sry man but cheap is the way to go...and im sure u wudnt pay more than u have 2 as neither will i
