Stick with what came with the car stock emblem looks much better, but if your really considering this emblem you might as well look for an old APC racing "R" emblem and like someone in here said. "Make it work..!" LoL'z

I am also thinking of Phillips X-treme Vision which supposedly increase the visibility by 50%. Do you find your CBI bulb to be brighter than the stock bulb?

Haha. Well the image I posted, I went back to look for you guys but the actual link gives a 404 error.

I did find this one though. $14 a pop is cheap compared to the $120 for the red. OP, they even have a red for $14 if you want it.

@zup2sky Supposedly according to retrofitsource the OSRAM puts out more lumens compared to stock 4300k bulbs, even though we've been told that by right the higher kelvin bulbs actually put out less lumens then lower kelvin bulbs. Supposedly 4300k put out the most lumens and 5000k a little less. But OSRAM is the only one that claims their 5000k bulb puts out more lumens then a standard 4300k bulb. Does it actually put out more lumens hmm maybe but you'll probably not notice, but you will notice that it's a whiter light then the 4300k.
