OK man, here is the real problem. You think the H logo represents lower level of car? Associates it with Civics?? The Home Depot grill mod brings down the image of our cars, not the "H" badge. For example, a L Legend sedan is just a middle level Acura. As a Honda Legend, it is king of all Hondas. And, it is unique. Those of us that have done it, we did it correctly. A real "H" airbag cover, real "H" grille assy and the correct badges/engine trim. People appreciate the effort that goes into this. And if people don't know dick about cars, then they are even more confused that a Honda can be so nice. Dude, no one will confuse a Honda Legend with a Civic. It is obviously a better car. Besides, Acura is not a prestigious name. I think everyone can agree that Acura is only a notch or two above Honda in percieved prestige, but many more notches below Infiniti, Lexus or BMW. The Acura name gains you no respect. So why is it so special in your mind?
