Black rear Acura emblem
Hello. I am new here, we just bought a white Acura MDX A-spec. I have removed all the emblems except the Acura symbol on the rear door because of the holes that are there. Has anyone found a place that sells black emblems? I know plastidip is a option but I would rather have a permanent solution.

How did you black out the rear Acura symbol? I did a chrome delete on my non-Aspec MDX Fathom Blue Pearl MDX; but left the front and rear Acura symbol alone. Don't mind the chrome look with the single Acura symbol on the front and rear because it matches the same emblem on the my 20" black Berlina center caps.

I wrapped it with gloss black vinyl wrap. I think it Turned out awesome. The hardest part was pulling apart the rear door panel to get at the bolts to remove everything

I've thought about wrapping the roof between the rails in black gloss vinyl wrap to help protect it and give it a unique look (Fathom Blue Pearl PMC edition). I still might leave the front emblem alone because I don't know if the ACC/CMBS radar system might be effected with chrome delete with plastic dip or wrap? I had to pull over a few times on the hwy in winter with my 11 MDX because the ACC/CMBS had a thin layer of slush covering up sensor panel. The 3rd Gen MDX ACC/CMBS seems to be overly sensitive already compared to my 11 MDX system.

If this happens again, it might just be easier to disable ACC/CMBS and use regular cruise control if it too much trouble to pull over all the time to clean.

I found some perforated vinyl wrap that I used on a previous project. I wrapped the front emblem so you can still see the Acura symbol but just faintly. It doesn’t affect any of the sensors so far after I put it

I have a 2019 A-Spec and would like the do the same mods. How does the front emblem come apart? Any youtube vids you'd recommend on how to wrap the emblems? Is that better than painting them gloss black?

Looks great the front emblem. Which perforated vinyl wrap did you used can you please share the product link?.

I swapped out all 3 of the shiny chrome emblems with the dark chrome version and it looks so much better. I tried the plastidip matte black and absolutely hated it. I peeled it off almost immediately. It was too much of an amateur look. These OEM emblems make it look like it came from the factory this way.

how hard was it to remove the "A" emblem on the back? I think it has three plastic tabs that pop into holes in the trunk deck. Did you have to remove any liner etc. to access it??
