Has anyone taken the emblem off the front or rear. How about the sides. The lines of the car might clean up some.. Comments?

I am thinking about taking off the H's, but leaving on the S2000, The only Honda I like is the S2000, and I really don't want to advertise that it is a Honda, I would rather have a "mysterious" look when people see the car.

Just my 2 cents

I had the same perception back in 91 when I had a '90 Eagle Talon AWD Turbo. It was all white, with the white wheels. No badges, nothing it incidate what it was. People always wondered, and always asked.

Will I have the same perception now? Not sure, only time will tell.

It does clean up the lines alot. I seen a Silver/Black without any emblems and it looked good.

It's a pain to fill the holes in the front when you remove the H badge up there, and also, it'd be tough to get it painted right. The badges look nice, IMO.

I removed the front and rear emblems and covered the holes with plastic interior fasteners that I painted with touch-up paint. Looks better than the front license plate hole cover-ups. Not as risky or difficult as filling the holes in.

Great, so when you drive away they think you have the new Miata.

Well, if someone can't tell the differance between the s2k and a Miata, then they would not know to appreciate seeing an s2k anyway!

I would almost guarantee that Acura emblems would fit. <G> That would throw a few people for a loop.
