I would never pay for stickers such as these, I am surprised OP that you thought they were OEM.

if you used paypal and the add listed them as OEM, and their not, you can file a claim. but thats if its worth the trouble if you didnt pay much!

Pitorican,

I've got these too. Yes, they are on my Type S. Yes, I like them. Yes, it is placed exactly where a regular A-spec badge should be on my trunk. No, I'm not paying more than $25-$30 for a real one-IF.......you can find one.


Yes, they will be staying on my car, despite pressure from fellow Acuraziners who don't like them.


Questions anyone?

Personally, I think these are a fine solution to tracking down and dishing out over $100 for the real McCoy. I would consider rocking the decal if I had full A-Spec.

THANK YOU!!!.. i could understand if people wanted to bash these if someone paid the price of what the real ones are going for... but the likely chances of me paying 100+ dollars for a badge are slim to none.. all i had was a simple question if these were real or if anyone had ever seen these cause they were listed as OEM... either way .99 cents for a FAKE look alike im ok with that... HELL I'll ROCK THESE.. IT'S MY CAR!!!

Dude, you're welcome. I don't know why there is such an uproar. The real badges are NOT worth $150.

I have one sticker, one sticker-tastefully place on my Type S. It's fine, it's good. It's no big deal. If it's done tastefully-why not?

The stickers were a few dollars. Respect the TL-place them just like you would a real A-spec badge----end of story.

Buddy, I can't make it because I'm a Disc Jockey at a radio station in Kansas City (101 The Fox). I'm on the air weekends. Plus, I'm also the Stadium Announcer for the hockey team in Kansas City. That night, we have a game, so I'm working that entire day and night.


But, please plan on coming to our AcuraZine National Meet. It looks like it will probably be the weekend of June 8th & 9th.
