I like them all ON! I know a lot of people like to take them off, but I think it looks great just the way they made it...

You shouldn't have any symbols so when you smoke them they will know that you're a TYPE S.

I have been debating this for a while and havent really taken them off...i agree with she l-s when i think they made a great design with the way they have the emblems on now but seeing it with the A just on the back is also clean....hard decision...for now until im fully modded i will leave the type s on there....thats how you really do it....act like a sleeper if you really are...not just someone with a intake..

i left the A and the ACURA because I felt it was more centered than just leaving the A and the 3.2 CLS...just my opinion..

Once you take it off, is there way to glue it back on beside super glue?

I took everything off except the A and didn't like it. Looked like some ricer shit. I put the "acura" back on.

The "3.2 CL-S" makes it lopsided, IMO.

Acura off, but 3.2 type S on

And unless your want to have body work done to your trunk lid you can't take the A off. It's bolted to the lid.

The A C U R A on the back looks too old school to me. Look at the back of my Legend, the lettering reminds me of this which is nice, but OLD...whoops don't mind the missing A symbol.

Nothing but the A, all the way. Don't give away that you are a type S, it is funner that way.

Leave the A, keep them guesssing. Some folks don't even know what you're driving.

My advice it just do what you think looks best, don't follow the masses. Then everyone would have the same car and how unique is that? That's why I sport a carbon fiber "A", left the A C U R A and have the new TL-S "Type S" badge on the upper right where the "CL Type S" goes.

This kid? Ive been here alot longer than you have buddy, and these type of threads pop up more and quicker than a 15 year old boy in a strip club.

FYI do a search " debadge" and you come up with 278 results. not too difficult

I think it depends on what color and what you have done. I guess I like how the chrome letters look with the white parts of the tail lights against the NBP so I left all mine on.

I was simply saying, I know that these threads come around countless times but there is no reason to bash on the person. Yeah there is a search button, but maybe he wants current opinions on how people feel about that subject... Dont throw a
