No disrespect fellows, but it is my fucking car and I will do whatever pleases me. IF YOU THINK, I'll take the type-S badge down just because a few dumbasses said that in a message board, "well than YOU ARE a dumb ass". It is not going to happen.
And for those of you complemented and applauded my car, " thank you very much". I noticed that there are many nice, helpful and educated people in this message board; there are, equally, arrogant, ignorant, unenlightened whose brains are half baked, who think they could make me take something down which I had paid for and I like. Hell no. After all moronic comments such as “ take the badge down asap” is nothing but jealously.

No disrespect to you, sir, but look at it this way. Take for instance a BMW 330ci coupe and toss an M3 badge on the back.. things like that just aren't looked highly upon. Now I'm not talking down to you nor am I claiming I "know it all", but due to the harsh nature of your response I felt like making you aware that it wasn't a personal attack on you or your car, just a simple point made by a couple of forum members (many of which have gathered a great amount of respect and knowledge through years of posting). It's just not something that is all that common, and when it comes up of course people are going to notice. The jealousy factor certainly doesn't come into play because anyone can buy a type-s badge and put it on their non-type s car, it's a simple thing anyone could do. Bottom line is no big deal though, take all of this with a grain of salt and enjoy the fact that you have a great looking car regardless. Good luck w/your sale!

Alright, to clarify for my own well being (amustafa1 this is not a bash against you at all and I want you to know that before reading on) but some have written in this thread in support of this general principle of falsely "badging" a car, and saying that's alright.. and not just saying it's alright, but heavily supporting amustafa's original response along the lines of "you're a moron if you think.. etc. etc."
Is it mere principle here or did I miss something? Hell I'm the last guy in the world that would personally talk down about someone's choice on what they do for their car. As was said: "it's my f'n car and i'll do whatever pleases me", but what got me aggravated was the nature of the response. No one harshly or rudely suggested to 'un-badge' the car, and it was simply pointed out that a non type-s shouldn't typically sport the type-s badges. There's no "i'm better than you" principle here, it's just plain logic.
I guess what my rambling is trying to get at, is was the originally harsh response by amustafa necessary? and if so, were the avid supporting responses necessary as well? Seems to me that a forum is supposed to be a place where opinions of all angles are expressed, and the last thing needed harsh responses and attacks on other's opinions.
Hopefully this response doesn't start more people getting mad about a simple thing like the wrong lettering on a car, but I wanna say again to amustafa, it's a beautiful car and I love the WDP for sure! Keep up the good work and don't let things like this hit you so negatively! Good luck to you w/your sale!

Come on guys, this is a PUBLIC forum. You will get positive AND negative responses. If you are not ready to take any constructive/negative criticism then don't post. Not every response is going to be positive. People are different and so are their tastes/styles.
BTW, I am also against that type-s badge on a regular TL. But it's your car and we are just trying to save you from unwanted ridicule from outside people. Remember, we are suppose to be an Acura family and we are suppose to look out for each other.

thats nothing... I saw a Type-S badge on a 2001 Honda Odyssey yesterday and anybody that knows anything about cars knows that there is no such thing as a Type-S Odessey, the same rings true here, anybody that knows enough about the 2nd gen TL knows the Type-S was only available in 02 & 03, really no big deal just hte taste of the owner, now having said all of that, I disagree with putting a Type-S badge on a non Type-S but to each his own 
btw nice clean ride GL with the sale

Very well Said, Black Shadow. I posted pictures of my car and someone actually didn't like my rims! I couldn't sleep for a week!
Seriously, there are a lot of people that will remark both negatively and positively to whatever you share. Some will be more respectful about it than others, but at the end of the day, remember that you still have an awesome ride that YOU can be proud of. You were proud enough to post it here for others to see, so don't lose sight of that.
