OP, putting a Nismo decal/emblem is like having Spoon, TRD, M or Dinan badges. For me, it tells me that you have particular parts installed from those brands that gave it the right to rock it. Like you, I was planning to convert mine to a full nismo using the body kit, wheels, tune, suspension, interior and other minor details - hence I was going to badge it. Since it does cost a lot, I think it should be fine but when folks ask, you have to inform them that it's a nismo conversion which IMO, gives you my respect for being honest for spending blood, sweat and time. It may not sound realistic for some folks, but as long as you are happy, that's all that counts.

I've seen owners put GT-R, R-Spec, RS and Nismo badge without any parts installed or even a reason - those guys didn't give a f*** what people have to say.
