So I had an extra emblem and put it on the trunk. Wanted to see what you guys thought? Didn't want to get carried away. (haha) On another subject do you know what would be causing like a popping sound that comes from the rear passenger side area maybe behind back seat or around the rear suspension. It sounds like maybe a little a body flex popping sound but not totally sure. It happens when I take off from a dead stop and but only when I take off really quick. Like when the rear end drops down from acceleration. I can push up and down on the suspension and no noise. I checked everything in the trunk and was tightened down. I have 46,000 miles so I wouldn't think something in the suspension could make the noise but was just wondering.

The Sport emblem doesn't look bad but with 2 fender badges already it might be a little overkill.

If noise is isolated to the rear and sounds like a pop or clunk it can be a few different things including strut mount, shock, swaybar endlink. With only 46k miles it's uncommon these should be bad but the age of the car plays a factor as well. I'd try the easiest first which are which are the swaybar endlinks and bushings and go from there. There should be no body flex noise at all unless something is out of spec.

Keep us posted with what the problem is. Remember with suspension it's better to replace things in pairs most of the time. I had one rear shock fail and then the other failed right afterwards. Turned into a full overhaul back there but better to do it once and do it right.
