What is the difference?

EDIT: between a regular emblem and a "jdm" one... It doesnt look any different.

oh, no worries i wasn't trying to mock anyone.


R_P_R, i think it would look better if you couldn't see the circle where the emblem belongs, but the emblem covers it up. if the circle wasn't there, i wouldn't keep the emblem. and i also don't see how this is JDM either

considering the CL had no JDM equivalent....i fail to see how this is possible. might as well put some Type R stickers too.

I'd have trouble putting one of those on my car, it does help that I have a 97', so the grill is nice anyway. Besides that, to me the only way to do it proper and it still isn't proper would be to use red honda badges. I was never a fan of the "JDM" Acura emblems, since they dont make sense.

I'd kinda like to see a photoshopped red honda badge on the front of a CL, just to see what it would look like. and not the cheap honda emblem either, the actual smaller JDM front badge. I once forked out the money for the set back in 99', for my accord, they were nice, till some a-hole pried the back one off with a screw driver in my high school lot. After that happened, I made the front badge impossible to remove without ripping the entire grill off the car.

until the airbag goes off and launches the emblem through your head

yeah, it's a one in a million shot, but I've thought about it before.

I'd keep the emblem there. That's EXACTLY how I want my grill to look.
