I can just about see the 'R' on the sideskirt! Replaced not removed yer?
Are these the stickers from a Type R, 06 onwards?
Looks like it, different fonts!
They look genuine Honda but I can't see full sticker
Could look ok if done all round with badgeing to no??
Hard to decide without seeing full picture. :thumbup:

just resize the pixels in photoshop or even paint or whatever you use before you upload them to imageshack then when you copy the [IMG] link into your post they will be a nice size.
