that third brake light and chrome piece dont flow with this car at all… ![https://lh4.googleusercontent.com/-fVFsMPZF2dQ/T49TA4s9zXI/AAAAAAAAAsg/sxRIPekyVTQ/s912/2.jpg](https://lh4.googleusercontent.com/-fVFsMPZF2dQ/T49TA4s9zXI/AAAAAAAAAsg/sxRIPekyVTQ/s912/2.jpg) So I had to fix it. ![https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-j_4rXZWdBUE/T49S_DEH_kI/AAAAAAAAAsY/14w8hXtdWI8/s912/22.jpg](https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-j_4rXZWdBUE/T49S_DEH_kI/AAAAAAAAAsY/14w8hXtdWI8/s912/22.jpg) Thoughts? Do I remove the Honda badge in the back too and plug the holes with plastic plugs? For other Civic Owners they sell that part painted here.

Better! The chrome piece makes it look really cheap and tacky. I’d either remove the H or paint it black. ---

Yea I will probably leave it as is, mainly because everything flows pretty good on this car now. That and I am super lazy. Edit: If I paint the rear emblem I will have to paint the front one too… and the front looks good. What do people think of stock mudguards? I kinda like the look, they are only $20 ---
