I took eveything off (except the "A") days after getting the car. I don't regret it for a minute, I like my a$$ clean! It's not a billboard But thats just my opinion

I removed my "3.2TL" emblem only, and I like the effect.
The emblem looks out of place there on the right side, since there's no emblem on the left side to balance it out. Now the trunk is more symmetrical.

So the 02 "A" has the same pins as the <02 models??
I've been thinking about getting me one as well..

But the 3.2TL has to go, the "A" and the A C U R A are nice where they are.. but on black I think leaving just the "A" is very clean..

Take off the 3.2tl and leave everything else as is. Now, about the 02 "A" fitting, you sure about that? Cuz previous threads showed that the holes for the 02 A are wider apart than the pre 02....

I actually like the acura on the back. I'm going to take the 3.2 off, it does make the back look unbalanced>

I've thought of that, but I could just as well put a post-it next to the "Type-S" badge that reads "Free Type-S Badge! Please take one".

Some a$$hole debadged my "A" sign but the worst part is that it broke in half. Now i have half an "A" Now how whould I removed the rest without scratching the paint. What whould I use to remove the sticky stuff from it. Gasoline works good but Im not sure if it ruins the paint or not so I need your opinions on how to do this. Thanks

Sucks. Those ganstaz have nothin betta ta do. Anyhoo, use rubbing alcohol to remove the sticky residue without damaging the paint. Also, you can use a thin credit card to help pry off the remainder of the emblem. I don't think there are any screws on the back of the A, just friction rivets; I could be wrong though.

PUNKS boosted my trunk emblem

Dude (wangx56),

I feel for you -- some punks boosted my '02 trunk emblem last week. Left a small scratch to add insult to injury. Shyne -- wish you all the best of luck. Looks like some people will do anything to steal ... (sh*t ... can't you afford $20 to buy your own emblem for your sorry @ss chain?)

Anyway, I vented this after it happened in the Type-S forum. Gonna cost me C$30 for the emblem and god knows how much for the labour. Just wanted to wish y'all well.

Personally, I agree -- the '99-'01 trunk emblems are too small. The '02 is in the right direction. But be careful! I was thinking about debadging but starting to rethink it over... If I were to do it, I'd take off everything -- less the emblem and 'Type-S' on my back...

That's my 2 cents.

2 things . . .

1) WD-40 works great for getting adhesive off

2) '02 A has different pins than '99 A. I buzzed the pins off the '02 A and put it on my 99. You just have to be real careful to put it on straight without the pins to line it up. You can cover the '99 holes in the trunk with the '02 A and still put the '02 A in the '02 location.

The "A" on the 02 is a little bigger than on the 99-01.
