Two negative comments and you're telling us to calm down. Don't take our opinions as a personal attack.

So you're looking to replace the Acura emblem with a Type-S badge? If so, the Acura emblem is held on with both adhesive and two clips. I would look on eBay for centercaps that are the same size yet have no emblem so you can get a badge and slap it on.

Non-oem Type-S badges are absolutely monstrous though. It's likely that they won't fit on a centercap.

I've never seen anything like that. Interesting.

Personally I think the centercap does a good enough job telling people that the car is an Acura but it's yours to modify!

Tyler, you idiot.

He wants the decal on the wheel.

Personally, I don't think it will look great. But as said, it's your car to mod.

I don't hate the concept here, I think I know what OP is getting at. I don't know if the outcome would work in this situation, but I'd at least be in for pics.

OP, report back if you end up doing it.

Type S decal on the wheels?-dhcgnyv.png

If you're able to pull this sort of thing with the TL-S waffles, I will be impressed. Best of luck.

Or if you could find a replacement emblem from the bottom of our steering wheel where it says Type S, I think it might look pretty good.
