Car now debadged.
i just sat out on my driveway debadging. left onyl the center A on. used blow dryer, floss, WD 40.
id say that technique is the first thing i needed to know. but i had to learn it. id start pickin at the sticky stuff in lumps so that it pulls on other peices of itself as you do it
the little pieces i WD 40d and rubbed with thumb
i threw a quick coat of wax on, that looks stupid cuz the rest of my car isnt waxxed
ill do that in the next bit. i need to learn how to wax properly anyways.
pics will be up as soon as i can. maybe tomrrow

I've seen cars that have been debaged and granted they do look good I just don't see the point in doing so. What is the logic behind taking the ACURA off of the back of our cars?

It give a nice symmetry to the back end of the car. there is symmetry everywhere else, so why not the rear? Plus, as TSX_Cman put it... is badass.

i'd debadge the ACURA piece...cleaner. Plus, if u notice, all Hondas these days only have an H emblem and model name piece. They no longer carry a HONDA tag so it gives the car a less cluttered look.

If you want to put it back on you can always pay the $20 or whatever and put one back on. I took mine off personally, i think it looks clean, plut the big ass "A" says it all
even though ive seen it already i wanna see it on your car....
