Only the symbol is thru the sheet metal. The letters and 3.2TL are stuck on with adhesive tape. On Sunday I removed the dealer name from the upper left side and the 3.2TL from the upper right. Used the dental floss method and it worked great. Got almost all the 'goo' off with my fingers and the rest off with some 'goof-off' and a paper towel. Polished and waxed the areas when I was done. Looks 100x better.

It's a personal choice. Do a search, you can see pics both ways. For me, I like the letters With the symbol, and nothing versus only the symbol.

I only took the 3.2TL off because A C U R A would be a pain to align back when I sold the car. I personally took off the 3.2tl for the sake of ying/yang.
