It depends on opinion, it could be color matched to your car and it will give you a simple yet awesome mod!

msala,

That looks great. I have an ASM Type S, so I like the red background on the Type S badge because it adds a nice 2nd color trim to the car. But on your NBP, it will look great. How did you colorize it?

And Wanderer--I agree with you. There are so many base TL's on the streets here in KC. But you rarely see a Type S. I'm proud of my Type S and want to show it off-not de-badge the car.

I don't have a DYI yet. I have a buddy of mine who did it for me. If you have any questions or inquiries you can email him. His email is vinyllusionz@yahoo.com. We both worked on the idea, but he did all of the technical work.
