Honda Inspire UA2 (Pics) 800x600

As the title says... i have finally done it... Debadged my TL...
The pictures are 800x600 because if i did them to small since it was night out already you wouldn't be able to see the debadge...

DEBADGED!!! with the two little holes where the "A" was...


Part # 75701-SK7-040 = Honda "H" Emblem... Also included Inspire Emblem in picture...


There is one more picture that i'm saving... It'll be a surprise Very good buddy needs to see it first... NO PEEKING KEN!!! I know you can see the PM's you punk...

I didn't bother erasing my plate number... everyone and their mom on the street see's it... what would be the differance... Either way... what do you guys think...

BTW: the Inspire Emblem was put up as a mock up with tape... so its not straight nor is it where it should be... A little lower and to the left... I fixed it though but lazy to take another pic...

Also took out the front emblem from the girll... now i just need to go to Honda and try to find the correct one... or import the girll from japan... or get TLxRaCeR's grill... undecided...

Enjoy

Oh... i forgot to tell everyone how i debaded it...

Items Needed:
1 - Hair Blow Dryer
1 - Dental Floss can (Full of Dental floss of course )
Patience...
1 - Hose
2 - Rags (Towels) ... 4 Depending if your helper is going help you too...
16-32 oz. of Gasoline
More Patience...
1 - Little Brother or Sister (or good friend) Requirement: Also with Patience!!!
1 - pair of needle nose pliers (For "A" emblem)



1. First thing i did was get a blow dryer and heat the stock emblem from the bottom... Had my little brother (17 yo) hold the blowdryer while i got the dental floss...

2. Start Flossing between the emblem and your car's paint... If floss is safe enough for the enamel on your teeth... its safe for your paint...

3. While Flossing communicate to your "Helper" to move the blow dryer to blow from the top of the emblem while you keep flossing where the air is blowing... (HOT AIR)...

Do this until all the emblems are off...

Needle Nose pliers will only be used if you need to take out the little plastic things that hook the "A" emblem to the little holes in the truck... Mine came off the Emblem and stayed on the truck so i used needle nose pliers to pull them out/push them in etc... Anything as long as you take them out...

Gasoline and Towels...
1. Get one of your towels and dip it in a bit of gasoline... (you can use bug and tar remover or goo gone but it takes FOREVER!!!)...

2. Dab it on to the gunk left behind by the emblems... Let it soak in for about 2 to 5 minutes... don't leave the gasonline on your paint for too long or it might eat away at your paint...

3. Proceed to take the gunk off with your finger nail... (Your finger nail works good because it won't harm your paint...) or you can use those window scrubs... Safe enough for your window its safe enough for your paint...

4. After taking a bit of it off... wash it down to take the gasonline off the paint... Dry it with your other towel... then soak it up in Gasoline again... for another 5 minutes of work...

5. Repeat 3 and 4 until its all off...

The rest you guys/girls know what to do...

I should give these directions to this kid at my school. He has a pretty nice/semi riced 328 BMW coupe. He has a drop, rims, exhaust, led tails, O.K. bodykit, HIDs, ect. The problem is he debadged his "328xx" and you can see the outline of the remaining adhesive..gross.

Gasoline works the best IMHO... but its dangerous... and now cost alot ($3.00+/gl.)

Here are some more pics for you guys... DAY TIME this time...



Also took off the front one so that it wouldn't look funny with an "A" in the front and "H" in the back...



I know... cracked bumper

I think I have that H for your front grill
But I'm not sure I'll have to check

Looks clean. I like my badges, but either way looks good. I debadged my Accord mostly, and I loved the clean look.
