Nismo shaved front Nissan Emblem
 
So I shaved the front Nissan Emblem off the nose of my Nismo. Sorry for the bad pics, but I jsut got back home and it was late. I'll try to have some better ones tomorrow. The car isn't even clean from being buffed, so only the bumper is shiny lol.

More details, removal of the emblem is I assume, but what did you use to fill. Anyway to notice it up close or no?

Nice. I am definitely interested in how you did it. I plan on debadging as much as I can once I pick mine up. I'm jealous............

nioce dood!!! i wanna shave my front emblem..... i got a dent on my front bumper so it gives me a reason to shave it lol...

the emblem is recessed, so when you remove it there are two holes, and a big dish recess. So I used urethane flexible filler to smooth in the hole, then did final smoothign with a little bondo and filler primer. Had to repaint the whole bumper when I was done. Kinda looks more like a catfish nurse shark of a car, it's hilarious.

Here are some day pics with it shaved, and of it before shave

Hmmm, I still like it, but it just seems so "open" in terms of a front. Nothing wrong with that, and I still am not a huge fan of the Nissan hamburger but I might not do this after seeing full size pictures now.

That's why I share :)
