so it can look JDM.

 

i guess

 

In Japan they are the Honda Integra. So to each his own. It doesn't hurt to have options.

 

IMO:

1. Red Honda emblem (looks great)
2. Original Acura emblem (looks good, since its the stock one)
3. Red Acura emblem (i dont like the look of it, weird.)
4. Original Honda emblem (looks too plain)

but then again. shaved > all

 

Ur entitled to ur opinion but i like my "H" on my teg. Sets it slighty apart.

 

Stock emblems

 

It sets it apart by making it just like everyone else's.

 

Acura is just a name. Outside of North America, there is no Acura. It's just a status symbol for us Americans to think we're driving a nicer car, or to justify an $80K+ price tag for a Honda (NSX).

I had them before I had the bodywork done on my car, all OEM emblems:


I liked the way they looked, but IMHO shaved is definitely the way to go. Also I was told by cops on a couple different occasions that having Honda emblems on it was a "no-no" *roll eyes*



BTW what's so wierd about red A emblems? USDM ITR's have them. I wouldn't put red emblems of any kind on my car, though.

 

shaved emblems

 

Its all part of the jdm hype.

I was pulled over a few months ago and the cop was dumbfounded. He called it in as a Honda Integra, then when he got the registration, he was like "I thought this was a Honda, that's what I called in" So I informed him it is the same thing. He just scratched his head and walked back to his patrol car.

Yeah it's not so much JDM, it's more anti USDM

Actually...

Japan will launch the Acura luxury brand by Fall 2008 with approx 100 dealers. Their reasoning is that the Acura brand will offer distinctive products with a core focus on advanced, leading edge technologies that are always ahead of the times.


Anyhow...I totally agree with the whole shaved look. As for me, shaved emblems, rear wiper, rear squirter, antenna, moldings, and front license plate holder

Face it you own a honda deal with it! hahahahaha!

 

I guess you have a problem with with integra motors too because they say honda on them. Sorry to burst your bubble, Acura=honda.

 

im not stupid i know its a honda motor the car says acura. when u gointo a dealership u dont say let me get an acura wit a honda motor, u say i want an acura. let me ask u guys this why do u buy integra's and not say a civic?

i was considering a civic, too. wanted a CRX originally. interior and exterior styling is better on an integra. the seats actually hold you better than a civic's. and engine is a b-series. overall better car to start out with.

 

honda schmonda. i put a blue oval on the front and a bow tie on the back... don't forget the hemi sticker too

I have a couple speeding tickets that say "honda integra"

 

it shouldn't be that big of a deal. if you don't like it, then that's cool. if you do, that's cool too. everybody has their own taste and whatnot, but yeah, i do agree that a lot of the cars on here do look like many others. just varies in paint and wheels. and emblems shouldn't really matter either, we all know what the car is, bottom line, it's an integra. i guess you could argue the same thing with the DC5. i see some people flossin integra emblems on their USDM DC5 not to mention with a matching/mismatching honda emblem. (just depends on what side you're on.) but i personally am a fan of the complete shaved look.

 

ya, everything under the hood says honda..
so why not..

i just hate when they put honda emblems but don't replace the "Acura" with "Honda"

 

just put on dodge emblems ftw!
