Running in Stealth Mode (de-badged)

Finally did it tonight. It wasn't too difficult. My car is 19 months old with 66K miles and I didn't have any tan lines. Notice the subtle reminder that it's a Type S ??

Sorry. looks like a Neon now

I admit the CL backend is bland but you guys are making it worse IMO. Neon, Taurus, CL, what else did I see that looks like that?
Some Chevrolet or Saturn probably. Acura was way too tame on the CL design and sales show it. Great car tho, of course.

I like not having the "S" on!!!!




People who don't know about Acura's have no idea mine is an "S" (People who KNOW Acura's will know it is cause its ABP)!! So when I blow their doors off, they don't know what hit them!!!

Yeap, love the look and no more scratches!

Nobody noticed the license frame. If you look close, the Type S is at the top of it.

I gotta' tell you guys, the more I look at it, the more I like the shaved look.

So long as it returns with emblems stuck back on it, I don't think they would care

My car is leased! As long as it's back on when I turn it in 3 years from now, it's fine. Although I have to find the emblems I took off. I might have lost them. If so then I can buy them at the dealer. If all else fails, I can claim they were stolen
