Well, considering the TL's are made in the US, and aren't even sold in Japan...no.

Asking about JDM'ing the TL will never go well on this board.. lol.

Using Honda badges is particular to tastes & mods.. it typically looks off like the one above. Wasn't that the TL guy who fucked up Eric's ride? What a retard.

Retard who messed up Eric's ride is same retard who put Honda badges on his 3G.
Coincidence? I think not.

Eric has one of the few TL's that he could do whatever the fuck he wanted and wouldn't get flamed. Hence why he is making a spoiler out of LEGOs

Yep. That was the same doucher. Mugen BS and red Honda logos don't belong on a TL.

never understood why people would put a lesser badge on their car. yes, it makes your car unique, but to 90% of the people out there, they think you just drive a honda.

Yeah...it'd be the same as putting a Toyota badge on a Lexus. Because that's cool guys! Yeah, JDM!

Different folks, Different strokes...

Honda=Acura
Toyota=Lexus
Nissan=Infiniti
Volkwagen=Audi
Ford=Lincoln
Dodge=Chrysler


In most cases these are the same cars in a different shell

Changing out the badges doesn't make the ride anymore or less than what it was before....

it just means to me that you're reminding your self & others of where the car was originated from...

But in the case of the TL...that was a HATE IT or LOVE IT move....Which most people seems to hate it

the only lexus i would put a toyota badge on is the the sc300/400 or the toyota soarer...

if cars were rebadged for the US, i think its ok to put the "original" badges back on, for example, the infiniti g35 is a nissan skyline 3.5gt in japan for the most part....but the TL was never made anywhere else like someone said earlier, so that is a NO. if the TL was still the honda inspire, i would probably do it, but that's not the case for the 3g.

Yeah, as other have said, the 3G TL was not made in Japan... SO DON'T DO IT!!

However, if I had a TSX, I am 99% sure I would convert everything to a Euro-R.
