Just cut out some vinyl, or paint it. You can always try ebay, they might have something.

i've seen the vinyl idea work out really good on a couple of buddy's cars... then if you stop liking it you can safely remove it.

I had the vinyl overlay for them on my car (about one year) and they work great and never chip. I can't seem to find them on ebay anymore though, I wish someone made them again.

measure the emblem ( a single diamond) from tip to tip.... side to side..... go to a auto vinyl shop.... give the measurements, tell them you want the cardinal red diamonds. my local shop cut me 25 diamonds on one sheet for $20.

For me,it was just easier to get one from the dealer and paint it red.

Had vinyl but over time and sun it started peeling up at edges

Paint is the best way to go about it. I did mine in black over a year ago and have not had an issue with it. Rain, sun, sleet, snow, or bugs it has kept it's color and no chips.


Just be sure to do several coats.

Ive got a chrome one sitting on my desk right now, but if you'd like a red JDM one I can call our supplier in Japan for you.
