photochopping to see if i like....any opinions?

i am debating whether or not to shave the burger...i think i like it off and i will do it this week. but not 100% sure yet. a lil nervous about it leaving a mark behind it. i also figured i'd toss in duals just for fun. (funny cuz i only have ms paint, hopefully i'll dl photo shop when i go back to school)what do you guys think?

i also took mine off. i think it looks a lot cleaner in the rear without it. just remember to use a cloth when applying the goo-gone. dont use paper towels because they scratch the paint.

Man, that's a nice MS Paint job!

I think it looks good w/o the burger adn the maxima lettering where it is. At least the 95-96 separated maxima lettering.

The dual exhausts look a little close together, and the tips are too large for my tastes. That combined with those tails would get your car vandalized if you parked it anywhere outside here in a couple hours time.

the nissan logo is what some call the burger...

thanx for feedback everyone, i think i am gonna be removing the emblem tomorrow. if i don't like, i guess it can always go back on. as far as duals go, i don't have enough money to buy rims or anything so that would come last, but would look nasty. too bad there wouldn't be any real performance gains, sure would sound nice though.

update...

i just shaved the burger today and all i can say is, i'm a fan. if you look closely at crazy angles you can still see the outline but barely at all. member Brendan helped me out and we like it a lot in case others are debating whether or not to do it. yes

dude, let me be the first to ask...what the crap is with the es? did you change it around to be unique or are part of a cruel joke? (just because i'm drunk right now doesn't mean i don't get jokes, but this i just don't understand) do we have lexus envy...?

if you don't know what a maxima es is then why do you own a maxima?
being on the forums i'd think you'd at least know the models of the maxima let alone anything else more complex...
why don't you do less drinking and more thinking?
don't let those altezza's cloud up your mind

What are you talking aboooooot?? First of all that could be a photoshop job, we have no way of knowing. You could have shaved the emblem off a lexus or some other car eh. Second of all if you do have an ES, it is not in the frequently asked questions eh. Furthermore, simply because you live in Canada (the greatest country in the world eh) doesn't mean that us here in the good old United States have heard about it or seen it for that matter. Maybe the mature, smarter thing to do instead of insulting peoples intelligence on this website would have been to inform us that there is such a thing as an ES (if there really is, which I personally don't belive) And finally if there is an ES it was probably Canada's mistake, BLAME CANADA or Celine Dion!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
