What do you guys use to rebadge?

vojm

theres 2 kinds of double sided tape so be careful... one is like a white foam... its kind of thick, dont use that one. use the other one that is skinnier... its black.

Mr Zipps

Can you get the skinnier black tape at autozone....

vojm

yeah that's the one i got

No glue!!!

If you send me self-address stamped envelop, I'll give you some 3M double sided tapes.

BTW, what do you need to rebadge? A or 3.2 TL?? If you send me those emblems, I can even clean, re-tape, and send those back to you. for friend....

Well I was going to debadge the A C U R A. but if it looks too void for me, I might want to put it back.

If you want to re-badge A C U R A, forget it. It's very hard to re-align those individual letters. You just have to get new one from the dealer when you debadge A C U R A. It's little more than 30 bucks from the dealer. Contact Tim if you need it.

hzm82

so the ones from the dealer has them held together untill you apply it?

I've made up my mind that i want to debadge the 3.2 TL. I also want to put it somewhere in the interior. Any suggestions? I've seen it put on the CD tray, but that's it. I'm thinking about putting it above the glove box on the dash. I was hesitant about debadging because I didn't know that you could rebadge, but now that I know, I think I'd like a new look. Thanks in advance.

If you check my gallery you can see what the tl looks like with just the A. I popped all the others off. If you wanna put them back on use 3m vhb tape. Vhb stands for very high bond. It is black and you can get it at any auto body supply store.

3m double sided tape

to rebadge:

1. Get a long packing styrofoam sheet from a craft store
2. Find a stock acura TL with the symbol and A-C-U-R-A
3. Press your styrofoam sheet up against the letters to get an imprint onto the styrofoam
4. Make sure you get part of the logo because that is where you align to yours.
5. rub chalk on the styrofoam imprint
6. Using the logo as your imprint alignment, press the styrofoam against your car to get the chalk rubbings off onto your car
7. get a masking tape and a level to make sure your letter will mount level
8. mask tape level so the bottom of your letters align to the masking tape
9. stick the letters back on
10. use several 1"x2" post it notes to compare your styrofoam space to the letters on your Acura

Good luck

Anyone selling the - 3.2TL - emblem. I'm looking to pick one up.

songoku

That's right!!

Any suggestions as to where to put the 3.2 TL emblem? I think it would look OK above the glove box. Thanks.

hzm82

yea I tried above the radio but it looked stupid. So above the glove box it goes.

aclonghorn

Damn, that looks good. Do you like how the back of the car looks? I really don't like the fully debadged look, but I think I would like the partial debadge look.

hzm82

Yeah I like how the back looks. I never like the 3.2 TL there, It just throws the yin and the yang out of wack.
