On an '09 Fit Sport do any of you know what the manufacturer installed front and back Honda and Fit emblems are made out of? I am specifically trying to know if are they chrome plated plastic, or some metal with a chrome plated finish, plastic with a silver colored paint, or some other combination. I want to know to see if its potentially possible for me to electroplate a new coating myself at the company I work for.

I'm not a Fit owner (yet...) so I can't easily investigate this myself.

 

Plastic, with chrome-like plating. I'm not sure they would survive high temps for long. The good news is, you can get replacement emblems from Bernardi for pretty cheap, and experiment to your hearts content! I'll take a Fit emblem in VBP with a red dot LOL
