Debadging help?
 
I am getting an Acura integra 1998 tmr and I was wondering if I bebadged the front if there will be holes? and if so what can or should I do to fill the void...

definitely will be holes. There will be holes in both the front AND back. best option... fill with bondo and paint?

or you can buy a red jdm style badge :troll: pm me if u want

I just put straws in the holes. Looks cool, nobody is gonna steal them, and if mcds forgets to put mine in the bag, boom! Instant straw!

LOL i'll consider it..

You won't do a good job painting yourself, trust me. And a shop is gonna charge anywhere from $150-250 to fill the holes sand and spray plus blend. Leave the badge on.

removing it is the easy part... tooth floss will do fine going thru the edges.

If you were going to try to diy bodywork under the beltline, I'd say have at er but the trunk and hood are big and highly visible so any screwups are super noticeable.

Don't the holes make it more aerodynamic?

gdoh 04-18-2011 10:56 AM
