Needs your opinion on debadging!! pics inside
 

So long story short, i had some work done on the back bumper that was covered by the dealership :driving: they had to repaint the bumper which made them remove the 370z & nismo emblems and currently the car is without the emblems, but they went ahead and ordered new emblems for me and now its my decision whether i want to keep it this way or put the emblems back. What do you guys think?

Debadge and black out (or do a gun metal grey color) the Nissan hamburger!

its a nismo being unique I would not debadge. But blacking it out or shadow chrome could look nice

It's funny that you bring this up, cause GF and I had this same discussion, only difference we have is when we bought the car it was fully debadged. So after many discussions, she wanted to make it OEM as much as possible, so we ordered the factory badge and put it on. It's her baby and she's happy.

without the badges the rear reminds me of a 350Z. and that rear was not pretty... minded me of a jack-o-lantern. :ugh:

i would keep the badges on the car. and no plasti-shitt. keep it chrome.

I would leave them off if it were my car.

I just debadged my car today. Don't have a nismo, but I'd say leave off the 370z but keep the nismo.

The weight savings and improved aerodynamics makes this more than worthwhile. I'm guessing it is worth 5-6 car lengths in the quarter mile. Possible better than a supercharger.

Put NISMO in the center and leave everything else off.

I say keep them...

I thought about plasti-dipping the hamburger but I thought that would make it look a bit ricey..

I totally agree, I just really liked the way it looks when debadged, maybe just cuz I felt the bumper was too crowded with too many emblems

lol i agree with the 350z rear being somewhat ugly, but why are you against plasti-dipping?

trying to be funny? :ughdance: :gtfo2:

that would probably look sick! i just don't wanna go through the trouble of removing the Nissan hamburger

I mean since your taillights are already tinted, this would definitely look good with it:

Yeah you're probably right, maybe i will end up plasti-dipping the hamburger and see what happens

I say plastidip it, you can always remove it if you dont like it. Should flow well with the smoked lights.

Nice to see another Jax member around.

If you are keeping the Nismo badge, replace the Nissan hamburger with this:
