Chrome RS Badge?

I would like to keep the chrome Honda badges in front and back. It'll be great to have chrome RS badge also (instead of the red ones) if it's available. Anybody know where I can get one?

Unless you are going through the effort to change your car to an RS, why put a badge on it?

Smile lol

i'm thinking of putting an RS emblem on my fit too btw and was also thinking the red really didn't match. since i'm rockin the silver i've been looking around for a matching sivler RS. here's what 've found...

http://www.autocarparts.com/part/1436/17/
i'm hesitant to order this since i can't actaully see it. -rep for autocarparts.com

i also found this during my search. YourEmblem- Make Your Car Unique with your unique set of initials. Better than custom license plate.

and i KNOW i saw an RS emblem that was silver with a thin red outline somewhere but i can't seem to find it now. anyonw know where it is?

hope this helps

This one? I think it's a front grill emblem for an EK Civic.

01-05 Honda Civic RS Emblem

RS was a Chevy thing since 1967 Camaro. Don't know about Ford.

What difference does it make. The top line Fit in Japan is the RS isn't it? What equipment does it have that is not comparable to the Fit Sport? Can anything not so equipped be retrofitted to our cars?

Everyone is so devoted to JDM parts but not very devoted to JDM badging. WTF

Unless you are FI, Red H emblems and other false trim model emblems are out of line...it's the sleeper rule.

Debadged looks the best anyway, if you don't agree then you are more addicted to the manufacturer symbolism than the design of your vehicle...

If it doesn't have to be Honda, The 98-01 Impreza had an RS trim level, actually thinking about it, they continued the RS trim level later than 01.
