Hilarious thread.
Acura's/Honda's I don't care. The TL/Saber/Inspire still looks the same and built in Ohio.

I want a Genesis too. Don't make me do it Josh with your hella tite modz.

... you're not getting the right idea. They don't sell Audi's with VW badges... anywhere. People slap on Honda badges onto their Acura's because in Japan they sell the car under the Honda badging, yada? And if you put a Honda badge on let's say the UA6/7/8 TL's that's rice because those cars are not sold with "Honda" badges.

Folding Mirrors would be fucking great in westwood

Suede leather > all IMHO.

... Yeah, cause being a 3rd gen is the only "rice" thing about a 'H' emblem on a TL.

It's all a bunch of trendy follower garbage. The jdm fad will die one day, hopefully. I don't know who came up with allthis crap, but it's ridiculous. Don't even get me started on wide wheels narrow tires and horribl camber.

serious shit... Why put a honda emblem on when your driving a more expensive car? people who know that acura IS honda will be like "oh they just put an H on their acura" then people who dont know the diff between a mazda and an acura will just be like "hey look another rice rocket honda"..im serious that's what people think!

I only REALLY care what intelligent people think. Every time i see a Tuscani badge i think "Man this cat actually knows a little something about a car." But every time i see somone with so much plastic chrome on his/her car all i can think is "Wow, somone obvoiusly doesn't care about peoples opinion of themselves is." IMHO.

while we are at it lets slap wings, fake vents and vetc badges on our cars to make sure they not only say honda but RICE as well, and make our intentions more apparent to the laymen

Nissan/Datsun badge swap

I have a 2007 Nissan versa hatchback with black housing headlamps & six speed transmission, it's a 1.8 L motor which translate to 1800cc's so I have two Datsun 1800 badges on the rear rocker panel hardly able to be seen . Nissan started is Datsun, I see no harm in it

You're a fucking idiot.

Oh wait my bad you think you're a baller because you have to be a responsible adult now in your pos mustang that is so expensive you are now finally afraid to drink and drive in it. https://acurazine.com/forums/second-...l-debt-916709/

You fit perfectly with the mustang crowd.Go play in traffic.

100% agree. While I have zero issue in JDM cars or modding a USDM car to look like it's JDM counterpart is very cool.

I on the other hand do enjoy saying I own an Acura over a Honda. While in the end that truly means nothing, I just like the A badge since there are less of them on the road than the H badges.
