Where can I find the cheapest, highest quality JDM Jazz Emblems?

I have been wanting to get rid of the "Fit" badge on the rear of my '10 Fit Sport for a while but haven't been able to find a trustworthy website or vendor to buy a good quality (but relatively cheap) Jazz Emblem. Anyone know of a trustworthy place to buy from?

I bought my jazz emblem from this place-- It's been on the car for about 10 months now--even if it eventually falls off (which I doubt), they are inexpensive enough to buy extras. Paying $70 for an emblem is crazy!

Honda JAZZ Logo A Badges Emblem for Honda Jazz SILVER CHROME EMBLEM OEM (Red Dot) , Size: 160x30mm ( Excluded the J's Dot) AutoXPAT.com - Online Auto Accessories and Auto Performance Parts Store Retail Shop, Auto Parts, Auto Accessories, Auto Electro

I wanted a blue dot, so ordered the GD model Fit emblem and used it. You can also get the one with silver dot and paint it.

Awesome! Thanks for the info. I've been looking around and jazz badges are going for like $40-$50 bucks sometimes more, I may order a few of them for $4.50. Because like you were saying if (highly doubtful) but if it were to come off, i wouldn't have to wait around for another one to come. Thanks again for the info, great color for your fit BTW.

Im not hating here, but why would you debadge and then install a jazz emblem? In my opinion with a jdm rear and tails it would work otherwise no. If you do please put it on the opposite side of your fit emblem like real jdm

Maybe the expensive ones are made of steel or aluminum, this one is plastic. I also bought the GD Fit emblem with the blue dot from my local Honda dealer--it's hard to tell whether it is plastic or aluminum.
I'd love to get a brushed aluminum Jazz - JDM Password site sells the badge for $79.99!! But no emblem is worth that much to me.

What is a good goo remover that won't hurt my car's paint, or the wax I've got on it?

Use ur thumb nail to get off the foam W-D 40 & a terrycloth will not harm ur paint but you have to clean w/ rubbing alchohol b4 aplling any adhesive. And what's leftover can be used for the hinges.

Alright, so WD-40 and a terrycloth. What about citrus based adhesive removers, i've read that they won't damage the paint, has anyone used this and found it to be true. I want to find as many possibilities to choose from before just running head first into this project; and I've already ordered the Jazz badges, should I mount them on the passenger side like JDM or should I mount them on the driver side like in Europe, which side looks best?

heat gun, and dental floss or fishing line works best. use the heat gun to soften the adhesive then place the line/floss behind it and work it up and down while pulling it across the backside of the emblem. after you get through just use some goo gone to get the rest of the adhesive off.

The fake ones are garbage. i had one and it fell off my car. the tape stuck to the car but not the badge.

I have an OEM jazz badge now and it's the shit. i got it for $10 shipped on ebay.
