I have the solid H emblem (genuine Honda part) on my Inspire conversion:
It was the only one that would fit under my spoiler. The alignment pins fit the holes in my trunk too so it was a direct fit. It looks like the one in your picture is mounted kinda low, not using the pins, just above the INSPIRE lettering. The INSPIRE lettering looks to be at the correct height, in line with the reflectors in the taillights.
Others have used the open H badge, just your choice.

you canbuy that H badge at any rice store.. any accord badge will fit in the two holes on the trunk, so you can get jsut the silver one from the dealer or go to a ricer store and get different colored ones, like that one, or red, blue, yellow, white, and some other glow-in-the-dark ones.

Compare the badge shown on that Japanese Inspire.

the H emblem you see in the first post, that is the correct emblem for the '99-'01.
the H emblem for the '02-'03 looks very similar to the new honda accord emblem.
in that first picture, that is the wrong emblem for that year... although it is still an authentic INSPIRE emblem.
