Hi guys,

I have just now put my car into Prestige Motor Vehicle Refernishers over here in Perth for my Mugen Kit to be installed. Although i was wondering how you would think of the Honda Badge being put back onto the Mugen Kit, i find it there will be a great big gap on the Mugen grille then putting the little Mugen badge on the bottom right (looking at the car from the front) like the Euro R badge.

Has anyone seen this done?

Any comments on how you would think this would look good/bad?

responses greatly appreciated.

I think it's better to put the mugen emblem in the middle of the grill. It looks much nicer IMO.

Are you going to replace the chrome hood trim with body coloured hood trim? It looks much nicer as well.

the mugen badge is supposed to be in the middle.
it is quite a big gap but if u want to put the honda logo back on it, i reckon u'd have to get the same size honda logo as the one that came with our OEM front bumper cuz other honda logos are way too small and just looks dumb

heres mine without the badge

body coloured hood trim is an good idea but cant we just spray them instead of buying it?

Yes you can, but you can't just spray it on top of the chrome thing. You need to remove the chrome thing before you spray it. It's just easier to replace the original chrome hood with body coloured trim and vice versa rather than spray it.

and you can pick up that coloured trim, painted from factory from parts at the honda dealership in Myaree (prestige)

I have decided to leave the grill with nothing on it.
Im also going to leave the hood trim.

Im just thinking of putting a euro R badge on it.
