Stealth Cl, that would look even more badass if your third brake light was tinted

Im soo torn between the black emblems and the chrome. I love the blacked out look, but I also love the contrast of the chrome on black from factory I guess ill keep my emblems stock for a while

I wish. I haven't had the chance to get a coat on it lately. I've been using the Wax As You Dry from Eagle 1 for awhile now. It's easy and it looks waxed but it doesn't protect like real wax does. Hopefully I'll get a coat of wax on it this weekend. We'll see...

This is me lately... Except shaped more like a chicken with no head... We need a smiley like that!


WHy the hell aren't my smilies working!?

Yanno, I really have no idea, the previous owner chromed it out. My guess is very fine sandpaper, then wash it or something? Seems to be chrome under the red paint.

..

Or chrome spraypaint?

sandpaper? for what?
when i took my badge off i got my fingernails under each side of the badge and SLOWLY pull the badge straight off. if you take it off at an angle you could take the risk of breaking a prong or pulling out the hole that the prong goes in (like i did) :shakehead

when its off get all the glue off of the badge and the trunk but dont use sandpaper. you can get it off with your nail, its not tough.

No, you use sandpaper on the back of the Acura emblem and on the front of the emblem so the paint will stick.

To get the emblem off take a thin peice of string and run that behind the emblem in between it and the car and it will come off very easy!

That looks freakin' killer!

I actually like the 'Type-S' emblem cuz w/out it, it might just be a CL-P! I recently took off the 3.2CL & put on a '32V' & kept the 'T-S'.

If U wanna c 30% tint, go to page 5 of 'Post yo pic' & check out my ride if U want & lemme know whacha think..........
