Default steering wheel badges

i currently have a rick's "S" wheel badge on my steering wheel (he does not recommend this for safety reasons)... and am wondering if anyone has a hood badge on their steering wheel?
i like the look of the wheel badge, but am thinking that the hood badge might look nice too-
any thoughts on this?

I have an extra badge does it fit? I saw this post last night, but didn't go out to check it out.

I just put mine on and they look killer! Mine are yellow on black, and I have the hood and tail emblems, plus the matching wheel hub badges. It really changes the look of the car from, "Oh, that's just a Honda" to "What the *&@#! is that!?"

I haven't recieved my new Rick's steering wheel nor the badge for it yet, but I'm hoping it will arrive soon. Do you know what the risk is of having the badge on the steering wheel? Rick wouldn't tell me. He just advised against it. I chose to remove him from all liabilities anyway, but I still don't know what the big deal is. Do you?

I have an extra body badge. I took it out to the car and it looked way too big and would end up indenting with the space around the center cap. This badge WOULD block the airbag deployment if installed. I want something that just covers the center cap which pops to the right or left when the airbag deploys. It is approximately 1.75inches in diameter, but I think the wheel badges are slightly larger too.

Wanabe, do you have a pic of what this looks like? The wheel badge on the steering wheel I mean? How did you make it fit?

I have Ricks steering wheel badge and I have to say it's the only badge thatI've been disappointed with. It comes with an application ring but it still looks stuck on. I did try a wheel badge on there but it looked a bit over done..I'd probably like ricks wheel badge better if it was smaller and just covered the H... i did stick a wheel badge on my secret compartment...fltsfshr

I AM NOT SELLING THESE, I just had this made for me. It can be done inexpensively.
