Mixing brands ?

Looking through the member pics I came accross a Civic with an Accura emblem on the front replacing the H. Honda and Acurra are both made by the same MFR and the accura emblem does look better. Can you get away with that? I couldnt see if there were other Accura type badges on it. Ive seen Mercs with Ford insignias. Toyotas with Lexes emblems.

Unless they're retarded and just put an Acura emblem in place of their Honda emblem, they usually have the K20 swap. I think that's pretty cool!

If it's an Acura, it's an Acura, if it's a Honda, it's a Honda. You can change it but it's still whatever the hell it was registered as, so yeah, it's pointless...

that gives me an idea, i'm gonna take the "H" off my trunk, and the "Civic" and replace the "Civic" with "Supra" so people will stop trying to race me.

Damn ricers its a honda so leave the emblems alone... Unless you get a type s swap there is no reason to mess with the badges... even with the swap I wouldnt touch the emblems....

if anything, you should replace the Acura badge with a Honda one. But i wouldn't do the other way around.. considering we're (North America) the only ones with Acura.
