Default Question about Swapping A for H emblems

I want to swap the front and rear Acura emblems on my 97 teg but am not sure which Honda emblems will fit my car. I know for the back it from a 91 Accord I think? but what about the front??? It has a slight curve. Anyone who has done this swap can you help me out. Or p/n's? Thanks :thumbup:

My friend gave me the front H off the hood of his previous 94 Civic coupe and also his current 93 Civic hatch. The pins will fit the front holes, but not the back, so I just shaved the pins off of one emblem to use on the back. I used emblem tape to secure all of them in place. And you are correct, 90-91 Accord for the rear HONDA emblem.

So a 93-94 Civic front emblem will work for the front on my Teg?

Another question what about removing the Acura name emblem on the driver rear side. It has 2 pins will the Honda name fit the holes or do I remove the pins and hold it with adhesive?

The Honda emblem I got did not have pins on it (had already been shaved off) so I cut a big piece of emblem tape the size of the emblem and stuck it on there. Believe me it's not going anywhere.

Why would you want the Honda symbol unless your teg is JDM?

because it's a Honda

Acura is just a name

besides, I got all three emblems for free, so why not.

Agreed^^ Acura is Honda no way around that. Its just going back to basics. Plus I think its cool, nobody has that (at least around my area) that I've seen, so in turn, its original where I live.

I say go for it, and good luck.:thumbup:

Putting an "H" emblem on an Acura, is like putting a Ford emblem on a Ferrari...hahahaha

It's more like putting a Ford emblem on a Lincoln, but whatever.

I guess I just wanna be different :thumbup: Any idea if the front Civic emblem will fit the front of my teg?? What about the Honda name emblem on the driver rear? Looking for help here so I can do this swap without that much pain.
