Default Someone stole my Acura A emblem, now what?

Some tool ripped off the Acura A from the back of my 2k Integra while i was shopping. Now theres two white holes where it used to be.
Should I:
A) leave as is, kinda ugly tho
B) Ebay a replacement, hope no one steals it again
C) Anyway to cover them up? I'm too cheap to get them professionally shaved.

You can do it in these following steps...

1. Purchase an OEM replacement.
2. In time, your emblem will get jacked again.
3. Create a post on Honda-Tech.com on emblems getting jacked.
4. Repeat.

BTW look at what they did to mines...

fill in the holes and get it painted. Then no one can steal them again.

leave the holes n gettem filled one day. If you put on another one, itll prolly just get jacked again, and next time they might not be kind enough not to use a screwdriver

OE A emblems are mad expensive y0... just buy a ghetto ebay one and if it gets jacked again, you are only out a couple bucks.

I think the crime rate for Honda/Acura emblems has gone down from before though. I remember a few years ago, everywhere you go you'd see a honda missing their emblem... i think they moved on to bigger and better emblems, like Benz's, bmw's, etc.
