It's all a matter of preference but if you were going to remove the wings I wouldn't shave the holes, just in case you wanted to put it on again,

There's two holes under the badges for pegs that hold the badge in place. I'd keep them for that reason alone.

The wing, is semi functional at speed, I'd keep it.

My ITR stickers are gone, looks better to me, YMMV.

You live in Los Angeles, the honda/acura rip off capital of the world.

I would suggest taking everything off in the interest of security. If you can give a flying ****, then leave it on.

for some reason, the R looks awkward without the Type R sticker and wing.. Just doesn't look right to me.

I like my R's like I like my woman... Completely shaved.

Or was it it I like a woman like a good scotch. 12 years old and all mixed up with coke

For security reasons: strip everything off.
For Blingblang reasons: leave everything on.

Make your own decision -
