Default i-vtec decal

This is my car

ours, like the JDM version does not come with the i-vtec DOHC or SOHC decal like the usdm model

This is the decal i will be ordering, it will be the original size that you guys get on your cars


The problem is i want the the original colour as well,
here are the colour choices i have

Is it the Gray? or Silver? white?

i can not find a close up (or a decent pic for that matter) of this sticker on a nighthawkblack 8th Gen U.S Civic

any help?

Edit: itd be good to know the correct positioning of it as well

Actually, the USDM never came with the SOHC just the DOHC on the SI's.

I've always liked this pic. Must have been after a good waxing.

Don't completely trust this thread. I have heard that different color cars receive different color decals. My FBP has a gray (definitely not silver) DOHC decal but I think I have heard that Habanero gets a white one. I don't know this for sure, and I think black would get gray but do some more research before you order.

GG which is basically gunmetal, that came on white and silver si's, and silver ones that came on all other Si colors.. do some research before u say someone is wrong.. here is a link to the honda part numbers for the 2 diff colors... if you own a fiji yours came with silver....

You are a douche. I never said anyone was wrong. Learn how to read. I even said that I wasn't positive.

Anyway...you're wrong. The decal on the side of my car is gray. I have a 2008 FBP FG2. The rim colors changed in 2008 so I assume that is why my car has a darker (gray) sticker. I have seen 06s and 07s with silver or even sometimes white decals, but mine came stock with a gray sticker.

Here's a picture of the decal on the side of my car. It's bland and gray, not bright and glittery (or pearlish), like silver would be.



Here's a picture of a black one (from the Honda website), with a white decal, proving, even further, how little you know.

That sticker on the side of my car is gray. My camera is two inches away from my car, so there should be no confusion any longer. What "looks brighter" or whatever doesn't mean ****, because the picture is evidence enough. I don't care what website you have, that obviously just doesn't have every sticker on it. I have seen black Si's with white decals in person.

Maybe they were Hondas way of "trying new things" but my friend, who got an '07 NHBP FG2 3 months before I got my car, has a white decal on his ride.
