Pardon my ignorance fella's, but what does the L7 represent? I've seen a couple on some cars but never really understood it. Figured I'd ask. :wink:

I was thinking of getting this badge too, but didn't want to look like a newb and not know the significance :lol:

hm...I don't have exact idea about what "L7" means, but told of 2 stories.

story 1:-
"L7" is just two Ls arranging in opposite direction like "Tai Chi" symbol
"L" stands for Liberty/Legacy whatever
"7" is an inverted "L"

story 2:-
"L7" stands for Liberty/Legacy Turbo
the "7" is a deformed "T", which means turbo

btw, any hyper link can direct me to the shopping site?

Thanks a lot :!:

It's not on Japanparts, I asked Yuki about it as well and he says it's not a JDM part. Looks like a USDM badge.

Thank you.

In the other words, JDM and USDM emblem are not being in same size. Could not share use? :(

I don't think that they are different sizes, just that they aren't shared in design and distribution.
