Honda badge gone

**MasTaKilla** · 27-12-2004 11:49 AM

I've been enjoying driving my accord euro for almost a year trouble free..
then someone comes along and steals the honda badge...

and a close up

Dont know whether I should get a replacement badge installed or not, because i'm thinking if I do it could just get stolen again and I'd be throwing money down the drain...

Do you reckon it would be better to get a new grill without the H badge? Anyone got any recommendations on grills.. Or does anyone who's changed the grill have a H badge they want to sell me if its easy to attach..

Well i hope this doesn't happen to any other owners of honda accords

I looked at the pics first before reading your post and thought - nice mod! Hehe

It doesn't look too bad -- I have seen a few Euros without the badge around Melbourne - not sure what the attraction is - they are just plastic.

If you want an aftermarket grill that doesn't have the badge - the Kenstyle looks great but I think the whole front bumper needs to be changed as well.

be thankfull it was only just the badge... other ppl get their windows smashed/cd player or even whole ride stolen...

if u want a badge just get one ... no point in suking over it...

i've had my badge in 3d mode (pushed it out so it floats like half cm in front of the bonnet casting a shadow) for a while now
and it hasnt been badged
lol

the no badge grill duzn look to bad, especially from a distance it looks
like a modified grill.
ive decided to leave mine with no badge.

but on the euro, especially in ur pics, without the badge is blardy obvious.

i had the same dilemma - got my type r badge stolen, so thought if it was worth replacing it wif a new pair... but i didn't think $240 ($120 each from Honda at the time) was worth it if they get stolen again.

but in ur case, make life easier for urself and buy a new badge. i'm sure it wont be more than $30-50 from honda... a grille + paint will cost heaps more. plus, i guess it's just bad luck. alot of ppl get badged... yer, shit happens so u just gotta live with it.
