Ready to purchase an 2019 to 2021 NSX aka NC1 from out of state. There are a couple options out there but my main concern is buying from out of state. My plan is the day after the vehicle is delivered, take it to the Acura dealership and pay them to give it a once over to make sure there is nothing of concern to worry about. I thought this was a good plan but then I realized the Acura dealership in my town most likely has limited experience with the NC1, if any. I've never even seen an NC1 on the street around here and the only one I have seen was a NC2 at an exotic car dealership parked inside.

I am pulling the trigger on one regardless but any tips on this whole out of state buying process would be appreciated.

Acura doesn't make a black front emblem so I was going to do it myself. How? Well I haven't figured that part out yet. I don't want to just tint it like some people have because it's not the look I was going for. First things first I had to figure out how to remove it knowing there are important components behind it. I did a search online and couldn't find a video or instructions. The AI search told me I had to take the bumper cover off. I thought to myself there was no way I have to take the bumper cover off to remove this emblem, so I went at it with a plastic pry tool. Turns out it is held in there by 4 of those compression tab things (dunno what they are called). IMPORTANT PART is make sure you pry from the bottom of the emblem or you could break something and this only works with 2024 and 2025. I have a type S but I'm guessing it's the same for all trim levels.

Hope this helps anyone attempting this mod!

Didn't cheap out on the material and went with 3M 2080 series. Did the Sequoia first and learned alot about working with knifeless tape, especially on the front bumper cover which took 3 attempts. Felt confident enough to do the Acura next. There are definitely areas I could improve upon but overall happy with the result. Now I'm itching to wrap something else bad! I mean really bad!

Started wrapping the hood and a week later no more urban Grey. Loved that color but might like this poser Gothum grey with a gloss black roof a little more.
