At first, I was thinking about putting the Acura stickers on the front bumper but I kind of like the clean look. I got to thinking about removing the Acura and the TLS emblems off the trunk. I like it both ways so what's your thoughts?

I don't know if this is a right place for you to start a thread.

But whatever, I say debadge them, it definitely completes the clean look.

I didn't know where the best place would be. I didn't want to put it under mod section since its a general car opinionated question.

Probably would have been best to post in the 3G TL forum: https://acurazine.com/forums/forumdi...aysprune=&f=93

There are a couple of threads there on debadging v. OEM, with photos of debadged cars as well, if you want to compare.

It's cool.

And in this case, it's better for you to put a poll.

Keep the Type-S one, get rid of the ACURA one. The TL-S logo is unique and keeps the TL-S somewhat apart. Its like the V12 badges on my car, I wouldn't want to get rid of them.

On a type S I say remove the ACURA and leave the Type S badge on. For a base debadge both the ACURA and the TL. Just my opinion, some people like leaving the badges on which is fine as well.

I agree ^^

I have a base so I removed my Acura and my TL badges. When I first got my car I wanted to leave them on but that didnt last long, now I love the way they look off.

Funny tho I was in Canada a little over a month ago and I HAD to valet my car at the hotel I was at. Well I drove there from CT so needless to say my TL was filthy!! So I guess since my car is debadged they had no clue what kind of car it was so they wrote on the valet tag "dirty tsx". I swear that is no joke, then they had the nerve to leave the tag on my keyring when i got my keys back
