I can always send one of mine if they're happy to send it back again. Definitely don't pay £20 for one!... You could get mine for £15 ;) :lol:

There where three design options they'd made up for the CivicX people.

Think it will be a smart edition along with Mugen covers.

Wondering what would be appropriate lettering, a quick Prelude logo search, not sure the one for the 5th is right? 4th looks ok.

Or should it be just a straight forward Honda logo.

Just thinking outloud.....

I personally wouldn't bother with the logo. It'd add more cost and it's not like it's seen anyway ;) (By the way, I'm not looking to get one, so you can completely discount my opinion :lol: )

Got to have the Prelude touch so as not to be generic, imo

Quite like the idea of this, to go with the metal 'mugen' pedals. Only thing is the pattern on the front is different (mugen is a metal mesh rather than speed holes)
How does it attach to the oem plastic rest?
And yep, it would need the prelude logo, IMO - is it etched, or just printed?

I should hear back soon and will post up all the details.
I think it's adhesive onto foot rest, and the logos look etched, (print would wear off over time). The pattern can be varied and I sent a link to the Mugen pedals with a view to hopefully matching the style of the accelerator pedal? Not sure if the mesh look possible?

Looking at trying to match the styling to the mugen gas pedal.

My thoughts would be Prelude logo third of the way up?

The jpg I posted of the 4th gen lettering looks right to me?
The 5th gen is all wrong, does anyone one have a 5th gen logo? Google search reveals loads of links for 4th gen but nothing right for the 5th, (unless I am blind).

Yeah that 5th gen logo you've posted appears to be the logo after-market sales have adopted for the 5th gen, but it's not correct.

It's quite difficult to find a decent version of the true logo. It's like this...
