Integra type s
I say debadge for sure. I just did mine, and I'm happy with how clean it looks. I took off all of the TypeS badges though, as I prefer a debadged/sleeker look. It did take some time, but after I picked up the right tools, it went from nearly impossible to manageable with some patience without taking the front bumper off. I think it took about 15 minutes.
If you want only what will be required to do it successfully, I'd recommend this.
If you want to then save a little time, this will help, but the first one above was the only one I could find that could get to both screws. The drivers side screw is in a real tight spot.
Probably not worth it for just the front badge. However, these will be welcome additions to my tool box for the long run, so they were worth it for me.
Interesting tight gap tools. Makes sense they'd work. A typical bit is 1/4" 6 pt socket sizing. You can use a low profile or pass through ratchet for more clearance. Even a small vice grip holding the bit has worked for me in the past, but usually the ratchet trick does it.

Yup, you are correct. However, getting a ratchet through the grill would be tight. I've never seen vice grips small enough to fit through, so that wouldn't work in this situation. Also, with how close the driver's side screw is to the radiator ducting, there's no way you'd get a 1/4" drive ratchet with 1/4" socket and subsequent bit in there. Even the second tool I recommended, which is much more low profile than that really didn't fit without marring the ducting, which I didn't want to do.

I dont think you can tbh. They're sold in packs of 4. I have two left if you are looking to buy just one. We ended up putting two on my girls MDX, and I decided to not put any back on the Integra.

I would take one if you have one for the rear.

I actually shipped one out to someone who DM’d me a little over a week ago from this board. I do have one remaining that’s sitting in a box. I figure might as well have someone use it. DM me your address and I’ll attempt to ship it out this Friday/saturday.
