What do you mean by a floating A?? Not sure what type of mod you're referring to.

The front Acura symbol just by itself w/o the side bars.

Here's an example of a Mustang Floating Pony

Stock Mustang for reference, notice the outline around the pony and the black mesh.

Yeah cTLgo, I noticed the Mugen grill, hopefully I can find one w/o any mesh or any other writting. I looks like just the center part can be detached from the bumper skin, like it was on my Civic when I swapped in a cough cough "altezza" grill..

That is one nicely done front end modification. Do you have any particulars as to
who did the mods and if they are commercially available.

In Canada, Acura did a fog light delete and made them into our Daytime running lights.

I would like to install an aftermarket set of fogs to my TL and this is the nicest looking

front I have seen yet. I know they are not needed with the stock lamps being the excellent lights that they are, but I do like the look.

Thanks TL42

Is it just me, or are the bottom and center grilles completely open (i.e. no mesh). If that is the case I think this will look horrid as all of the components (radiator air inlet etc) are hidden by the crappy grille from Acura.

I would like to see a nice mesh conversion (ala Mercedes) with a nice black metal grill. You could easily float the A in the mesh and it would really make it look nice.
