Man i bought my car with that same acura symbol your talking about. I guess the previous owner must have put them on. Just the other day some fuck stole the one off the back of my car. DSo now i have the freont but not the back. I've been trying to look for them all over and could not find it anywhere. So i gave up my search and found something a lil corny but im liking it... "its more then meets the eye"

Acura Insert

www.trimstop.com

Kathy @ Customer Service for Trim Stop contacted B and I, the dask kit manufacturer and is having this new ACURA Insert made for me with real Carbon Fiber, for
$15.00. But I am also buying a complete CF dask kit.
B and I is newly engineering this product so I world assume that they will want to market this as a product.

No...the ACURA logo will be $15.00-the entire Carbon Fiber interior kit will most likely cost around $250-$350.

Here's the logo on the front of the car.




And here are pictures of the interior kit.

Guys, I just looked at the kit from Trim Stop. You might want to look at www.nycdashes.com too. They have a very good kit too with a lot more pieces than were shown at Trim Stop.

Hey Steven:

Did CF pieces you added match the stock pieces on the gear box, doors, compartment doors underneath the radio, etc.? I ended buying the CF pieces that goes on cup holders and heated seat controls so hopefully they don't go to waste. Thanks

Tonka, they actually look MUCH better than the OEM pieces. The OEM's are so dark, you can't see the difference between the threads unless you're in direct sunlight. So with this kit, you can see the difference in the thread-no matter what. Realize the photos I posted were shot with a flash, so you're REALLY seeing the detail upclose. Overall, the kit looks awesome and it's some of the best money I've spent on the car to date.

JJZ-I got this from the Veneerz Store, but I don't think they carry them anymore. I don't know why, but I guess I got in on this-just under the wire.
Someone posted that AutomotiveConcepts.net carries them. But I just looked at their site and it seems like they offer that as part of a package that includes "B" pillars and the fuel door. You guys might give them a call on Monday and see if they offer them by themselves.


Here's another shot of the carbon fiber ACURA logo:




And one with the red pinstripping trim on the nose:

its cool Steve. I do have the carbon fiber add ons, but just the stock ones.

that was even a stretch for me. I do like the front bumper logo.

I will never change mine though, its black reflective, at night when your lights hit it, it shines really bright.

^^That link Steven provided does NOT have the bumper logo decals available anymore.

In fact, I believe ALL of the vendors who used to supply these have stopped carrying them. If anyone knows of a vendor selling these---note they are called "Domed Decals" and are the raised, 3D type---please post links.

EDIT: My bad. I missed the "interior". In any case, my request still stands.

DWB-you're right. You might do a Search for Domed Decals on Acurazine. You might be able to find some previous site that still carries those logos. It looks like the consensus site is Veneerz.com. Not sure if they even make them anymore....
