Black Chrome Emblems?

Does anyone have this on their 2G TSX?

I'd love to see pictures and find out where to buy them as I would like to keep my OEM emblems aside.

We've only shipped 1-2 of these kits for 09- TLs...there are not many out there yet. Although they would probably look killer with that grille kit!

My emblems arent chrome, but they are blacked out. Maybe this can give you an idea. Its a matte black color along with the lip spoiler.

The Euro Accord TypeS has a black chrome grille!

For me it wasnt dark enough, so I made my grille with carbon vinyl

Hey guys! I just ordered HeelToe's black chrome kit for my 2010 Black TSX. They should be here any day. Does anyone know how to remove the Acura "A" emblems from the front and the rear? I already took off the ACURA and TSX emblems with a hairdryer and dental floss, but can anyone help me with the Acura "A" emblem removals? I would be much appreciative!
Cheers!

Doing a grille would be really cool but is very very costly...probably not going to happen with our low volumes.

Hey guys!
I ordered the black chrome emblems from HeelToe, and they came in last week. They didn't have the ACURA emblems in stock, but I installed the "TSX" and front and rear "A" emblems in black chrome. Here are some photos. I think they look really great! Thanks HeelToe! I know this isn't an easy process.
Cheers!

Honestly, in pictures they look the same. chrome vs black chrome albeit a shade darker. I'm not sure it warrants the price but to each its own.
