yea.. except that our trunks sort of have a line right down the middle that comes out.. so it may not stick properly.

Try it out though, and good luck! I've seen a CL in miami somewhere w a yellow badge. It was nasty, but thats because the car's owner didnt take good care of the car...

I had that same Emblem......However i bought one for like $20 bucks!

So I know i def. got ripped off.......anyway. I never found a way to put the emblem on my car. I figured it would look cool on the back trunk being that my car is blck and everything.

However I did see another '97 Cl around my way with the emblem attached to the trunk. The dude told me he had it put on....by a local body shop.

So I think you can def. put it on your ride

dont waste the money . . .they will not stick on the edges cause of the massive ripple in the middle of our truinks . . .i have the carbon fiber ones and it sticks . . .from far aways its looks kool . . .but the closer you get the more you can see that they are not completley on the trunk . . .will post pic later . . .

uhh, honestly, leave the stock ones, or take them all off. and if you really want to do it, try heating it up to bend it so itll look better

I had to buy a new emblem because someone stole my "A"...I just bought a carbon fiber one. I put two rows of dbl sided tape on them leaving a little gap in the middle for that crease. If you try and do it with just the tape that is on there it will not stick on right. I just doubled up the tape on the outsides and left about 1/4" gap running verticle. That gap is for the crease in the trunk. Ive had mine on for about a year and it has not come off yet.
