since i got the euro kit...do you guys think i should get the euro-r grill and badges? im realy havin a touch decision with this....somehow i always think of a honda sign as being cheap, but on the other hand, i think my car would really stand out from the crowd

 

no, i agree with honda sounding cheap. TSX are at least sold as an acura here. i do not understand why people put honda badges and stuff.. but it's very subjective. I personally would never change acura to honda. c'mon some of your money went to "luxury brand"

 

Stick w/ the Acura stuff. Besides, the Euro-R grille doesn't perfectly fit anyway.

I personally think the chrome Acura symbol keeps the car looking classy. The JDM stuff may attract the wrong kind of attention - like that of thieves who may try to rip those JDM parts off the car. Kind of like how people w/ Integra Type Rs get their badges and stuff jacked. No one will likely care to steal the stock grille and Acura symbol.

Since you're also buying rims/tires, it would be better to put the money for the JDM badge and grille into better rims/tires. There would be a definite performance advantage btw running lightweight forged rims with relatively light Toyo T1s compared to running a heavier cast rim w/ one of the cheaper but heavier tires available. OTOH, the honda badge and grille won't add any performance whatsoever. Well, you may be able to run faster b/c, your wallet would be lighter.

 

Do what you want. I have no emblems on my car. If you want Honda emblems do it. Its your car don't let anyone else change your mind. Acura is part of Honda...Acura doesn't exist anywhere else except North America.

 

I would say get the Mugen grill.

 

yeah if you do not want the honda emblems then I would also say to go with the mugen grill then too

 

I say if your going to do it, then do it right. You already have the kit, might as well complete the conversion...my

 

Wonder why they only have the luxury brand Acura in North Am? What do they do in other countries? Just use the Acura style wit hthe honda name? And if your in the US, why not keep the Acura badging? The bling bling value is worth it IMO.

 

i think i might just go with the mugen grill - or a replica...does anyone have an update on the one they are making at silviaparts.com?

 

not really a big fan of the mugen

 

mugen is the best looking aftermarket grill out right now IMO
