You could most likely order one through your Acura dealer, or, just do a Google search.

Ask your dealer to price match Bernardis' on-line price.

to conclude this thread... i FOUND IT! it looks like the dealer, for whatever reason, put it in the side door pocket area..so...i'm assuming a few dabs of super glue and i'm good to go? or get the dealer to put it back in?

I would think it would have self adhesive. Look closely if it has a clear film on it's backside to peal off revealing a sticky side.

Mine fell off when the car was about a year old. I just stuck it on a shelf. Maybe I'll glue it back on before I sell it sometime in the future..... That way I don't have to worry about it falling off again.

Since it doesn't affect performance, it's not a big deal. But it's interesting that it's happening to so any of us.

i was checking the oil yesterday and saw the turbo emblem was bowed up. it came off with my fingernail.

i think the intercooler cover looks kinda better without it, so its staying off for time being.
