Is our HYBRID badge "borrowed" also ?

I've noticed the Honda Civic's HYBRID badge looks a lot like ours, or is it the other way around?

The HCH has been around since 2003, however the 2003-2005 HCH has a slightly different badge than the current 2006 and 2007 HCH.

I have not looked too closely, but several folks have reported that the Altima uses a slightly different font and a different shade of blue? then the Honda. They look similar to me.

Sorry - have not noticed - been focussed the important thing - getting higher FE than the NAH

You can use an HCH2 badge if you think it would help.

Actually, maybe the NAH should shun any badge what so ever...Extra weight reduces FE...Based on it's numbers, it needs to lose all the weight it can!

You mean the same way Honda cut 3500 lbs when it decided to stop production of the HAH?

Edit - I was thinking of getting a THS badge from Toyota to put on my NAH!

Well... I bought my 2003 HCH in 2002 so it's been around since 2002.

Too bad the badge didn't work out too well on the ACCORD!
