Default 99-00 Si grille badge moved to side?

Hey guys let me know what you think. I put the honda badge to the side of the grille. Looks kinda weird but its a bit different, however not sure if anybody rocks their badges this way.

Don't really know how it will look on the car but I'll give it a shot and see how it turns out. If anything I'll move it back to the center or just remove it completely.

***EDITED*** I added pics of the badge a bit more centered.

I thought it looked a bit weird too, but I wanted to do something different that nobody really does without compensating too much of the stock look. Mind you I'm not sure if this has been done already cuz I haven't seen it yet.

Nah looks weird, like it doesn't belong there considering the size.

Might look better if it was red like the rest of the grill and to the side. I'd say try it on your car, be good to see something different.

maybe a smaller, red emblem would fit better. I see no problem with the H there, just it doesn't look like it fits too well to me.

I know what you mean... I kinda agree...I was bored and decided to experiment a bit. Nobody really does this, thats why I may leave it like this. Rock my own style.

My car is actually black so i'll be using a black front molding piece instead.

Yeah no doubt. I think it would look better also with a honda emblem a bit smaller but with same colours as the "RS" emblem found on the ferior vi-rs, black red and chrome i believe.

Like this but a "honda" emblem instead but I dont think they sell any like this.

I like the clean look as well, but I've done that before.

I think any grilles with logo on the side looks tacky. just keep it blank.

I think hood mounted look better. I like the effort though, a single Si/SiR/Type-R offset badge mounted where you have the honda logo now would look pretty good I think.

Thanks dude! Yeah I had the SiR badge on there before, got tired of that. I think the reason why it looks weird is because of the size and because it portrudes outwards a bit too much. If it were smaller and didnt stick out as much, I think it would look a bit cleaner and less weird looking.

I think an Si grill emblem from a newer Si would look good in that spot.

Here's a vid of an EK(EVILTEK1's bro) with a the badge positioned to the side of the grille.

Not bad IMO
