I think the front badge would look good taken off, but no need to remove any others...No matter what you do you're not going to get that "JDM exterior" you're going for on your Civic Si.

do what you like man
personally, i had everything on the car when i got it. i took off the H on the front grill, debadged the civic and si on the trunk. i personally think it looks alot cleaner.

If your EM1 came with the "H" on the front grill take it off. I also took off my "SI" badge from the trunk(sticker) and my DOHC(stickers) from the sides. I personally kinda wish I kept my DOHC stickers on. And do what you think you should do. Not what Honda-Tech thinks you should do. You have to look/drive the car everyday. Not us.
thanks but to those that said i aint goin to get the "JDM look i want" well i am goin to change a few exterior things, such as lip kit, headlights, side molding, etc. but i didnt say i was goin to make a CTR or anything I just want mine to look jdm, not be fully jdm. i have 17" rims and most people think those are rice and go with 15's. but it is my car and i have already taken the front emblem out i hated it and when i got it, it was the the first thing i did, besides take off the 18's lol. but my ideas on the DOHC Vtec sticker was to try and find a black one to go with my black on red theme. Smoked Chrome Headlights, Tinted windows, 17" black rims, and MR paint job. I know its my car and i should do what i want but i just wanna get a few opinions on everything before i shave anything cause i have to repaint my whole car so i have to take them off anyways but the ones like the H on the trunk and antenna i cant put back if i shave them whereas i can replace my SI Civic and DOHC Vtec. Thanks alot tho
i aint worried about what people think as much as i am wondering peoples opinions. cause sometimes peoples opinion can show u a side of something u dont know. like earlier asking about lowering my car and it messin up the alignemnt of my axles and it wouldnt be smart for the motor i am building cause it will destroy the axles. if i didnt ask i wouldnt know. and i dont know about the kit yet. i may just save my money cause i aint got alot and do a lip kit for now until i finish my motor.
Think twice about removing the antenna though. I did on mine and regret it. I have horrible radio reception now. I didn't shave mine I just got the block-off plate. If I had to drive it everyday I would no doubt be putting the antenna back in it. Before someone says it I do have and amplified antenna, iy's alright but doesn't compare to the stock metal mast. However I do think it looks better w/o the antenna (looks cleaner IMO).
