Forgot to post a pic of the ma Jazz with stock alloys. I'm sure you have all seen a facelift Vti-s GD before.
Anyways...
JDM YO!
Check out my 'How to basic' DIY install of these plates, if you haven't already: http://www.ozhonda.com/forum/showthr...-drilled-holes
Acquired Type R red emblems. Takes a bit of modding to get them on.
I didn't take a pic of both badges together so here they are from another forum:
(http://www.fitfreak.net/forums/fit-e...lots-pics.html)
EP3R front (larger)
DC5R rear (smaller)
Rear badge up close.
Type R vs stock rear badge. I didn't take a front comparison.
To put on the front, you had to shave the plastic straight, and clip off the two rear pins.
I didn't take a before shot, so here's another pic from that forum (although mine looked a bit different, but basically the same):

Note that AUDM's and US's Jazz/Fit's grill are different.
My first time using a dremel... then somewhat smoothen it over with sandpaper. (Dunno what grit, not too rough)
Tried to sand down the inner edges of the outer area.
Used superglue to ensure it stick in down firmly.
The top and bottom edges didn't quite stick down, so I used a heat gun on the badge to make it form, annnddd just as I was telling myself to NOT to apply too much heat, BAMM a small crack appear on the badge, and I accidently made a fingerprint of superglue which I cannot remove!Ahh, too embarrassing to show!
I should of taped up the badge before hand!
For the rear, I had to use a flathead screwdriver behind the exterior trim to break off the two pins holding the badge on. Clipped off the rear two pins on the type r badge and sanded it down till flat to fit flush on.
Washed off with car soap, then used alcohol to clean it all. Sorry, another no after photo of it cleaned. I cannot find it!
Also no installed close-up photo, but you'll see it in next pic.
