It's too much trouble brother.

It's going to require a repainting job to do correctly. I remember on my old VW Beetle, I had to use a mig welder and fill the holes up with metal, grind down and finish with plastic filler.

Leave it like we have it Looks great IMO. Some people actually have no idea what I'm driving and ask me what it is

I only took off the 3.2 TL emblem, did not take off the word ACURA. If it is a hot sunny day where you live these emblems will slowly pull off by hand as they are held to the car by a kind of glue. If it is cold heat them with a hair dryer and they will come off. No alignment holes were in my car.

Hey Chuck. I believe JPS already has those badges removed like yours trully here(see his sig). I believe he is asking about the "A" which has two alignement holes in the trunk lid.

ah....makes sense. I have yet to meet a girl that knows as much or more than the average guy knows about cars. Most of the girls I've met don't care past how the car looks. Call this an unfair generalization, but that's what I've noticed....which I find to be unfortunate b/c I feel that cars are so much more than "something that gets you from point A to B"; it's a reflection of who you are....IMO.
