acura hood ornament

has anyone ever looked for/into an acura hood ornament, like mercedes has.

not sure how it would look with the front grill and all, maybe ronjon can put something together...

just brainstorming

maybe with a 3m tape attachment

I think a hood ornament would be pretty kewl. I had a Pontiac that had a hood ornament that was an Indians face that lit up at night Wish I had that thing back for a great mod on the TL.

Not odd. Just those with a sense of humor who like to poke fun occasionally.

DOUBLE YIKES!!!!! As the old saying goes: "Class will tell." Your taste for selecting vehicles is beyond reproach.

That's what worries me, the number of young people who watch MTV and do exactly what it tells them. Sad thing is, I remember when MTV was good and actually showed videos of people you wanted to hear...I really am getting old...

so the big ass ACURA stamped in the front bumper isn't enough crass for you? Understand, that Benz ornament, actually MEANS something to people, no matter a C-class or SL 65. An Acura hood ornament is laughable and if Acura did do it we know EXACTLY what would happen.

The Honda guys would start stealing them and putting it on their cars.

Comcast screwed up so I am getting all the channels at no additional charge(well we havent recieved the bill yet, but this happend once before and I am in no way itching to tell them. Last time I called cause the clock was off and they realized I was getting all the channels and they changed it, and there is an MTV which is all music, all day(and its not mtv2). And I must say I have tried some of the stuff I have seen in jackass, and then proceeded to buy the movie(DVD of coarse).

I saw some ad for a show on the history channel and it should a trap door opening up on the hood and the hood ornament popping out. Anyone know what I am talking about?

Does Comcast have a grammar and spelling channel? If so, it might be beneficial to communication skills.

Yes,,,,

That was the new Bentley or Rolls Royce... Can't remember which.. But yes, the hood ornament would automatically retract and disappear into the front fascia to prevent theft etc.

that would be the phantom. cool, but kinda redundant, as if you can afford a phantom, you can definitely afford a security guard for that. i sure as hell would... a security guard and a german shepherd.

crazymjb - I've seen that channel...just like the videos they play for an hour or so on MTV, they're not ones anyone actually wants to see.

fund101 - nothing wrong with that...I've still got (and play) my Nintendo, and I have all the old Atari games on a disc for my PS2

Now that I've had a night to sleep on it, I definitely want the gold dollar sign hood ornament. After I get my devotions, I'm going to have them painted gold and get white walls. Then I can add the Acura gold package. Ah yeah!
