I am tired of that "DOHC VTEC badge" on the armrest.. I am getting burned by it all the time! Anyone have a fix for this?

You don't mean to tell me you drive with 1 hand off the steering wheel do you?

Just Kidding...actually I know what you are talking about but don't have a solution (and I am driving a black/black with non-functioning (for the moment) AC.

'91 Black/Black
 
You can switch to a '93 and up center armrest which doesn't have the badge and in addition to that, you get a useless cup holder!!!

93 has them because mine is a 93.. i wonder what it would cost to get that part without the badge!

So is the FAQ wrong?

Mine has the badge but no cupholders... did the 93 have cupholders?

That brand that it leaves on your arm is supposed to signify a proud NSX owner. Just like a mullet haircut and dirty jeans usually signify a proud Camaro owner :-)

I would say yes, the FAQ is wrong. I think they removed it in 94. -- unless they removed it midway through 93?

get a piece of clear plastic/vinyl ....cut to size and adhere with clear adhesive.
 
Hahahaha- I get this all the time...I keep a small washcloth right behind my seat, and put it over the badge for like the first 10 mins in driving....it looks weird but I've gotten burned too many times =)
 
some 93' have the cup holders and some don't in late 93' they changed to the cup holders and gum tray etc.

also, they are not a direct swap. the cup holder has different hinges and is about 2" longer than the older one.
