type s emblem

ok i heard about someone wanting to put the type s emblem on the sides of the doors between the tire and the front door.. it sounds like a good idea.. kinda like the M3's and the S4's have...

but it would look too ricey..the type s emblem fits only as a trunk emblem....

anyone have any other ideas for emblems? something like audi's stripes would look good..

also where should the placement be? there a lil nubben of space in front of where the front door pivots... there's that sill.. or should i put it higher up like on the S4..

also how bout the front grill? how do they do that?? woul di end up just guling it there? would that look good?

anyhow thanks.. any input is helpful

Putting the Type-S emblem on both sides of the car between the tire and front door does NOT look like rice at all. I've seen several people do this... both pictures and in person. It looks OEM, especially since the Type-S emblem is so small.

I've also seen them on the rear pillar of the car on each side... doesn't look too bad but not my style...

I know its an Acura and thats all I care about. Some people don't even know what a Type S is. Who cares? I didn't buy my car for everyone else, I bought it because I like it.

3M sells double-sided tape for emblems and moldings... it's the same exact stuff that is on the back of the OEM moldings... should be able to pick it up at your local autopart store....

Got them from my Acura dealer. They also sell them here I believe, and they have adhesive already on them.

walker29 - I edited your post to show the actual picture.. in case you're wondering why my name shows up as edited by

Anyway... I told you guys they look good. I've also seen them installed above the molding which also looks good....
