is it possible to remove front and rear emblems without repainting the front bumper and rear panel?

Sure, just leave it with holes, or take some caulk that is the same color as your car(easier to do if your car is white, or black) and fill them in.

Not really. You could leave the holes but it will be ugly as sin.

What they generally do is weld the holes, paint the part that they welded, and then blend it in with the existing paint. Then they clearcoat the whole trunk and nose.

I just got mine done this weekend while I was in Montreal and it looks immaculate. You'd never guess that the holes were ever there. Not even if you put your nose right to the spot.

Does anyone know for SURE if the 90 tegs have holes behind the "Acura" and "GS" symbols? The 90's are different than the other G2's, so I'm not sure.

Also, you know how G2's (maybe its just 90's) have an "Integra" sticker in the center of the back of the car, just below the trunk? Does anyone have any easy ideas of how to get it off without damaging the paint? Thanks.
