Should i debadge?

I am thinking of debadging my tsx. I would just take off the "acura" and the "tsx" and leave the "A" since i dont feel like dealing with the holes that are there. What are your thoughts? Does it look better or should i not do it?

do it. people dont really see too many 2nd gens on the streets and when they dont see the TSX badge, you keep them guessing. i like that part of debadging. ive had a couple of people ask me what kind of car is it. its nice to get that recognition from strangers

i prefer to leave it on. lets you show off what you got. 90 percent of people no nothing about cars. for all you know they might think your car is a carolla

De-badge it, that's good way to keep people guessing. The more mods you have on it, the better...
