    My civic doesn't have the LX sticker that's supposed to go on the back... it was removed at some point in time.... I was wondering if I could get that replaced... if anyone knows where I could order it that would be helpfull.. maybe from a dealer or something idk... thanks for your help

    ? a salvage yard may have one. the dealer would for sure but may charge more than you want to pay.

    My civic is actualy blue... so your suggesting I leave all the emblems off make the 2 Honda (H) emblems [one in the front one in the back] the JDM ones? Does this affect car value or any legal stuff?

    JDM parts are popular with civic owners. i would say ditch the lx sticker for sure.

    Okay... I will not replace the emblems.. but when they were removed there is now a print on the paint and you can't remove it so I'm gonna have to sand it down and repaint it and idk if I can find the exact color and then I gotta worry about how many coats is perfect and what not... I suck at touching up..

    you have a print now where the emblem used to be? not a problem, i used to detail cars.... all you need is some 2000 grit sandpaper and some rubbing compound to get that out. i'd start with some rubbing compound first and see if it will take it out, if not then you have to wet sand it a little (not too much cuz you'll take the clear coat off and you don't want that to happen). after you wet sand then compound it then you can wax, presto! looks good as new!!!

    Is it just like a sticky substance or is the paint a diff. color?

    It's definately not a sticky substance. I'm sure it was 15 years ago but it is like bonded to the paint. :(
