The bottom part of my '2' on my 3.2 TLS badge broke off. I"m assuming from washing my car. So i carefully took off the whole badge and with a little careful razor blade work I chopped the 3.2 off and put on new DB tape and voila! What do you guys think?

Very nice, I think. I prefer not to have 3.2 on it.

Looks almost like mine (except w/ Type-S badge). My first pic will give you a good idea of how it will look like w/o the A C U R A.

I like it. I feel the more you take off the better. It's a story back there with all the badging.

nice, but i like it debadged all the way, or at least with the ACURA off

TLin401

It looks unique. You are probably the only one with that look.

Nice mod.

CHEWKNOW

I think i might take the ACURA off as well. How did you guys take your letters off the easiest. my 3.2 part just pulled off because it was loose anyway. but is there an easy way to take off the letters with minimal residual sticky sh*t?

I think a lot of people use a hair dryer to heat the adhesive and then use goo gone or a similar product to remove the excess.

your car looks nice from behind man.

Hair dryer, heat gun, or hot water poured out of a pitcher behind the letters. Be careful with the heat gun and the hair dryer if you have Rockblocker on, though. I learned out the hard way and started melting the film. Caught it before it got too bad, but still kinda messed it up.

Looks good. If you like it, leave it alone.

hey chewknow did u think about cuttin the tail light tint so the turns and revers is clear and the rest is black? might give it a good look

Nice job.

CHEWKNOW

I have...but I keep going back and forth about it. I'm afraid to cut it off and not like it then have to spend another 50 bucks to get the tail lights done again.

Heat the letters up with a heat gun, or leave it in the sun for a while. Take a piece of floss and carefully floss behind the letters and it will cut right through the adhesive. Then just use some Goo Gone to remove the excess adhesive. Rub in some polishing compound to remove any other marks in the area.

hey i like it. i was thinking the same thing

Bear2Day

Debadge, the only way to fly!

trailz516

Is there any type of adheasive that would work better then tape when re- attaching a badge?

CHEWKNOW

I bought 3M double sided tape (The RED kind) Its like there industrial sh*t...worked great.

lostkhan

Debadge the A C U R A , it would look HOT

^ I thought about throwing the 07 type S badge on...I think it looks slick. I dunno about spending 30 bucks on one though...how much did you pay for that one?

Ryons02TLTypeS

they list 37 from dealer, but i got a lil less since i work for abc parts in mineola.

Razzi

woo a vcura, thats awesome

Ryons02TLTypeS

its an H

Fender Bender

Oh I didn't even notice the upside down "A"...
Not really feelin that...

Bearcat94

Uhhh .... but it's shaped like a "V"? Maybe you're one of those "creative" types; Me, I'm not feelin' it - as an "H" or a "V".

Now if you turned all the A C U R A letters upside down, that'd be creative.

Anyone know where I could get an '02 or '03 "A" for the back of my car? I need one bad!

Fender Bender

Ebay would be my first spot to look.
Maaaayyyybe a junkyard if you can find a wrecked 02-03?
Is the 99-01 "A" really different???

Never Summer

It is slightly smaller, and on my debadged trunk it looks out of place, the small one that is.

LOL, I hope you are joking... That's definitely the Acura "A" but just upside down.
