Yeah. I have one for sale. I found it on a 99 Civic LX. Seriously though, you may want to go to an aftermarket tuning shop. They may some some for sale pretty cheap.

someone did the same thing to my GF's '99 Civic LX (are these cars cursed or something?). i just went to Honda of Santa Monica (dealer) and bought the emblem from the parts dept. Make sure they sell you the round clips that go on the inside of hte emblem or it won't stay on. It was under $10 so it was cheap and very easy so install.

You're right. Honda emblems are better.

Maybe its a conspiracy. Maybe the places that sell the badges are the ones stealing them...

I had my red trunk emblem stolen twice. The current one I have I got at a swap meet for $5 and I epoxyed the sucker on. I also try to park with the tail in as much as possible. Especially if I go to Chinatown or the San Gabriel Valley as those were the places they got stolen.

Don't forget, blue ones are for torque and the glow ones are for extra turbo power.

hmmm...
I'm not sure if you guys are trying to mock ME personally here or what. I have red emblems because it matches the accessories I have in my car. My car is black and having red on black looks good to me. I'm not trying to fool others or myself into think it's a Type R. I just think it looks nice. I think it's perfectly okay to add something to a car just for aesthetics as long as you have the attitude of that's the only purpose of it.

where in Ventura County are you from? I'm originally from Moorpark. I park my car on the street every other weekend there when I visit my folks and so far so good (crossing fingers). Like I said, it's only been stolen in Chinese communities. I'm Chinese myself and I'm not being racist. Just an observation.

The glow ones I think are about $20 a piece. I think the red glow ones would look okay if you hooked it up to the brake lights kinda like how the Viper emblem works as the third light on the GTS.
