I would if you could make them "light up" behind the "H". I really like that on Hondas so I want it on my car! rolleyes.gif

I seem to recall reading a while back someone else who found a similar way to "tint" their H emblem. They took the emblem off their hood, and removed the silver backing, leaving them with a clear plastic emblem. I'm not sure how the backing came off, but I believe it just peeled with a little coersion. They then used the emblem to trace a template onto adhesive vinyl in the colour of their choice, and cut that out, erring in the slightly-smaller side, and leaving holes for the pins that will resecure the emblem to the hood. They then applied the vinyl and the emblem, and the colour was visible through the clear plastic.

I haven't seen this done IRL, so no guarantees as to if this will work with yours. If anyone else remembers seeing these instructions, and has a link, put it up.
