Switching out Fit logo

I'm considering changing my stock chrome FIT logo for either the 1st generation one (with blue dot) or the jazz one (blue dot too). What do you think?

Thought I'd include pics to make this easier. The stock one is from my car, the other 3 are from College Hills Honda (http://www.collegehillshonda.com/hon...ccessories.htm)

I'm for any of the above, so I didn't vote. How did you figure out that poll thingy?

Yeah, pretty simple actually. You know, the whole point of a poll is for people to vote so.... come on, you MUST have a favorite???

Does anyone have the actual part numbers for the above logos? Might help when I contact my local dealership and attempt to get this through them (wish me luck!)

...I should attempt to research things before posting here. Sorry! For those of you who are interested:

Part# 75722-SAA-901 = Brushed look Fit logo
Part# 75722-SAD-M00 = Chrome Fit logo
Part# 75722-SAA-Q01 = Brushed look Jazz logo...this one is an OEM import so may be harder to locate

Ok, I just votes and chose the stock current one, only because it jives with the new Fit's ad campaign, and it even matches the font and typeface on your tach and speedo!!!

But I can see if you put the blue dot logo on, it will personalize your car.

I'm really on the fence. I AM a libra after all.

It really comes down to what you want/like. I can do a Photoshop job for you to show you both logos on your car.

Eh?

I'm leaning towards the 1st generation Fit logo (with blue dot), chrome look since there's no other "brushed-look" on the car. I do have the chrome exhaust in the back so think the shiny chrome logo (as per the '09 stock one) would look nicer..... Just remembered that I put plain chrome license plate frames on too! Looking more and more like that's the way to go though I would like some other opinions...

The picture of the 09 FIT logo should be as large and clear as the others to make the poll fair.

..sigh...trouble maker today aren't you? Yes, I'm working on it. Geez....

Couldn't do it. If I increased the size the resolution became too poor. Oh well. Use your imagination...

considering you don't have a Jazz I wouldn't do that one either way.

For the fit emblem its up to you, its whatever you like, personally I would remove it and keep it without one

Ok, thanks to "CrystalFiveMT", here are photoshopped images of my Fit:

Currently (all caps, chrome Fit logo)


With 1st generation chrome Fit logo (blue dot)


With "jazz" brushed logo (blue dot)


Clearly, we have a winner....

My choice stands...the stock all caps logo is consistent with not only the ad campaign/website but also the gauge fonts. But I think the blue dot emblem is cuter.

Yes. The poll results show a preference.

Yeah, I actually LOOKED at the poll results. Seems that the stock all caps logo is leading the way. May have to rethink my blue dot preference. Having a "Pufferfit" decal would help to sway me......

Now hang on a minute...it's currently 7 for the stock logo to 5 for the chrome 1st generation logo. This isn't a lock after all! Reason I posted this is that I'm kind of indecisive so really can't decide which look I prefer.

It doesn't matter what anyone thinks, FitCanada Girl. It's what YOU like. They're both pretty similar-looking in the first place, so you can't go wrong.

Don't make me do another Photoshop job to convince you, lol.

The blue color doesn't "fit" well with the orange. It clashes. Imo.
