Other that the A on the back, looks pretty good with no badges. Need to find a black A...and a turbo for it lol. |
what's that next to it, a brand new RDX A-Spec as well lol?

No, Lexus RX

Sadly, Acura only sells the black MDX and SH-AWD badges, so that Acura badge will require DIY to black out. Give it a proper high gloss black :)

I like it. Planning to do the same for my MDX when I do the clear bra and ceramic coating in a few weeks.

Debadged and blacked out the roof. Any ideas on how to black out the chrome sign? |
De-badged and plastic dip all the chrome on my 19 MDX hybrid after I did the ceramic coating. Thinking about blacking out the fender "Hybrid" and "SH-awd" emblems and putting them back? Very hard to tell the MDX is a hybrid without those emblems (especially for the fire department if they need to cut someone out the MDX).

Do the A-Spec emblems above the front wheels on both sides have holes behind them?

The logic: There are no holes on standard MDXs. Mrgold35 removed the silver Sport Hybrid badges from the side of his SH-MDX and there are no holes visible in his pictures shown above (the Sport Hybrid models have a badge in the same spot the A-Spec badge is located). The A-Spec does have different front fascia and rear diffuser compared to other trims, but that appears to be the only changes to physical shape compared to non-A-Spec models (excluding the round exhaust pipes). To me it appears Acura uses the same fender on all versions of the MDX: Base, Tech, Advanced/Elite, A-Spec, and Sport Hybrid. It would add manufacturing complexity to only drill holes in those panels for A-Spec versions. |

MrGold, that looks incredible. :drool:

Thanks! I ended up plastic dipping the Hybrid emblem and putting it back on my MDX fenders. The hybrid emblems on the fenders is the only way to tell the hybrid from the 3.5L MDX other than the orange plastic cable wraps in the engine bay. I was worried if I got into an accident and emergency crew might have problems if they have to cut into the MDX. Only Acura owners know the blue "SH" on the rear sh-awd emblem means hybrid.
