Blue "H"

Although these installs are really nice, I would really like a blue "H". Is there a blue authentic honda emblem?

No, Honda never made them in blue. You're closest bet would be ---> https://www.fitfreak.net/forums/merc...ml#post1055274

I would think they would work on '11 and '12 fits. They are listed for 09+. Anyone know where to pick up the jazz rear emblem? I saw the when I was in Austria last year and they looked awesome.

I just ordered mine but I'm already thinking of sending them back, didn't realize I had to go through so much BS just to install them and any previous experience I have with cars in the bumper/grille/headlight area, has been a total nightmare and a half. Clips always break easy and get all messed up, it's just not worth it.

It's not that difficult. Probably take you about 30 minutes tops. Just take your time. Pulling the clips for the front is easy.

Yep, and with a pry tool all of the clips in the hatch trim piece pop right off easily.

I mean they'd look so damn good with the blue raspberry metallic, I just don't want to screw anything up, breaking stuff on a new car is just painful to do. But I'll give it a try.

I did my front one just now. Didn't come out perfect....like any sort of 3M crap you'd stick on a car (visors, decals, etc) It is slightly off but not enough to really notice, (you'd have to feel around the emblem to tell it was off) But I clipped the prongs, sanded them down and also sanded down the area where the H is on the grille....I also filed that area down first, and stuck it on! It feels a bit "clicky" towards the bottom of the emblem and there's a slightly bigger gap on the left side but I tried to pull it off to see what happened and that thing is on there, it's not coming off, so at least I don't have to worry about that. The rear I attempted. IMPOSSIBLE.....but I haven't gave up yet! I think I am going to have to invest in a very small pair of needle-nose pliers because it does not want to come off and it's literally pretty damn close to being a massive headache. -_-

They fit the newer models. And to anyone thinking about buying them do it!!! Easy install and they look so fire I love the look Get the "knockoff" ones if you can find them. They all do the same thing

On the rear one, does it fit perfect or is there a gap all the way around it?

Greg, this is the correct part number 75700-S5T-E01. No gap around emblem! I just messaged the guy on eBay to see if he had that part number. Maybe do an exchange.
