What do you guys think of these? I haven't found the prices yet, but I have the store.

Interesting...I see those on eBay a lot. I think they're a little too rice for an ES...obviously its up to your personal opinion, but I think because of the colors the only thing on our cars that it could match or complement is brightly colored aftermarket replacement hoses, if you happen to have a set in red, blue or white.

A friend of mine has a white Civic with the Honda emblems with red fill, and it looks pretty tight, but ricey.

I think the white one would look good on a white ES, but then what is the point really. I think the colors are just too vibrant for the subtle styling of our cars. Just my opinion. To me, it all really depends on the colors you use in/on the rest of your car and how they all blend together. I imagine there is a combination that would use those emblems and look good, I just can't envision it.

For some reason, I can only picture some dude putting those colored Lexus emblems on his Toyota Celica or something.

haha yeah Eric, I considered those too when I first saw them on Ebay, but I realized none of those colors would look good with my paint.

I'd still love to paint the car one tone though... man that would make it sharp looking (like lexpusher! )

I didn't say I was going to get one, but I was trying to see if maybe it would look good on an IS. I just want silver emblems, not the fill in logos.
