De-badged
I removed the "Acura", "TL", & "Type S" off the trunk lid along with all the "ULEV", & "alarm warning" stickers from the windows. I think it cleans it up nicely

Nah, that's stock on TL-S. Some kind of plastic, with that pattern sandwiched or molded in.

The debadge looks good, you know what you should do though? Put the TL-S badge on the bottom right of the trunk just for th status

That's what i did in essence w/ my car this past Wednesday evening. I lost the Ac and the TL badges on the top right and left and just kept the A-Spec badge on the bottom right. It looks 10 times better..
It was way to busy before. It had badges in 3 of the 4 corners there..
If you guys want i can take pics tonight to give you an idea as to what it would look like. Just say the word.

I like when someone recognizes what it is by the other features that make it a Type S other than reading it on the back.
Haha yeah i gotcha, but the only thing that is different compared to base TLs thru the "common" eye are the tail lights and rims haha
