Question Custom Emblem - Opinions Please

I plan to remove my stock "ES 2.0" side decals and replace them with custom-made MP3-style emblems (similar to the ones Mitch had had produced for "MP5"). I've worked together 2 designs and need an opinion on which one to use.

The first one says GT instead of ES:


The second one says ES-R instead of ES:


I like the GT because I bought my ES with the Canadian GT package and so its more suitable. My only problem with it is that it sounds very Pontiac (catch my vibe?). Mazda did use GT naming on the old 323s and MX-6s but haven't been using it in the recent past. As for the ES-R, I like the way it looks but sounds very Honda/Acura-ish (ricey, perhaps?).

What do you guys all think? Which one should I go with or do you have any other suggestions? I might just end up making one that says "ES 2.0".

It's up to you. IMO DO NOT use the ES-R. There are way too many Civics running around with fake type-r emblems. They look like morons to real car enthusiast. Don't put your self in their class. Our cars are much better than theirs.

Don't do it! Ultimate rice! I like the ES badge! It's not to showy, but it's noticeable. Subtlety is key.

DROP the R....add the 2.0 to the ES badge....it will not only look good....it will CORRECTLY identify your car.
