I wanted to replace the LX on my 01 coupe with an LE from a corolla, is that possible?
I think i twould be cool to have my last name on my car, what do you guys think?

 

They're just glued on, it should be possible.

 

I'm sorry, but the whole idea sounds retarded. You don't like the letter X?

Also, putting your last name is also a bad idea. 1) everyone will know who's car it is 2) nobody does it.

 

oh okay cool if they are just glued on then thats no problem i was afraid they might have been screwed on or something. I just wanted something different and something that will raise eyebrows with drivers who know civics behind me... I want them to tihnk "wtf is that - so cool"

 

Lol, true.

Yeah puting your last name is a really bad idea. If you ever tick someone off in traffic then they could easily find your car again and could be sure it was you.

 

If nobody else would know that LE was your last name, such as ticking some random personoff in traffic, they would probably just assume that it was a trim level badge. Even if they knew Civics and that LE wasn't a trim level, they probably wouldn't assume it was a last name first.

 

Fixed. But seriously tho, insted of changing the trim spend that time painting the valve cover a neutral color or something. That would cooler imo.

 

Trust me. No one who knows civic is going to think that is in anyway "cool". Might as well glue a bmw badge on there. Its original.

 

okay i guess you guys are right- hahaha but anyways
whats the best way to remove the lx trim letters... do i have to repaint the surface? same question for the civic emblem too. thanks

 

*sighs* Use a heatgun for the LX, it's just glued on. There might be some glue left on the paint after you take it off so get a putty knife and put a peice of tape over it so it isn't real sharp anymore then scrape the rest off. The "H" symbol will leave a hole in your trunk if you take it out.
