I agree with James. Without the badges, it makes it look like the car has had some bodywork.

I agree either removing everything but the A, or leave the A and the Type-S badge.

I tell her to take it all off and she did. Sorry forgot we were talking about the car.
I think keeping the A on because of the 2 plastic pins.

you gota buy it and put it on yourself or pay someone / dealer lots of people have done it on the boards... there are some dealers you can get for $750 shipped already painted straight from acura itself so it matches perfectly.

Message me if your interested I can give you the info of the place I got mine from...

I took the "ACURA" off. Then moved the "TL" over where the "ACURA" used to be-to balance everything out.

Yeah that would probably look nice, technically we don't need two "Acura" :p
