Talking Ricks "S" front + Rear Badge & Wheel Center Caps still Avail (FIND) eBay

I got out of the S2000 game around 2012, sadly Ricks is no more - I was looking around and tried a few key words on eBay, and came across this .. One of the original partners still has new old stock and there are a few options available.. Most likely going to get myself some before they're gone. I have a'07 Luguna Blue so I am still deciding what color would look the best on the car.. (UPDATE: 4-3-18, purchased myself the badges and center caps). Figured $50.00 shipped is not bad!

I did a little photoshop and went with the New Formula Red on Black, center caps I did New Formula Red on Silverstone, (there were no center caps to match the badges, I most likely will not use the center caps).

Cheers

Will update once I receive them. They have already been shipped - thinking about buying one more set and just keeping them for awhile. It's neat to be able to have kind of a piece of history of parts people use to enjoy on their cars.

What's your technique for removing the old ones? Heat and dental floss?

I actually have never had these on my S2000's before - I just got "back into S2000" about 2 months ago. I would imagine old ones would come off with the technique you stated! Do you have Ricks badges or?

Not a problem, like I said it's great we can still get the last of these...

Awesome! Post pics when they arrive, I shall do the same. The guy never answered my question about if there are any other products left sadly. Also do you know how much these were back when the site was running?

I don't... just the regular H's.
I've de-badged previous cars though. Hair dryer to heat up the glue then dental floss works well. Have some goo gone on hand too. You may need to do a lil polishing also depending on how much scum has gotten in between the grooves in the old badge and scuffed up the paint.
