I've got a black 99 Maxima ES and I want to shave some or all the rear emblems. If anybody has some pics of any shaved Maximas, I'd be interested in seeing them.

I heard that shaving the emblems can be done with a hair dryer, some patience, and some polish. Is this true? Advice is appreciated.

 

I have my rear end shaved. As for the hair dryer thing i dont know because my shop did them for me. Ill put up some pics in a while.

 

Check the 4th gen FAQ for directions on how to remove the rear emblems.

 

why would u want to shave off the rear emblem? Keep it and represent your max to the fullest

 

what looks better just the MAXIMA Emblem or just NISSAN EMBLEM?

 

Personally, I like both the Nissan and M A X I M A logos on the car, especially on the 95/96 models. However, dealership emblems/logos MUST go at all costs.

 

 

I used a blow dryer and some fishing line to remove my M A X I M A lettering. If it's a real hot day, 90 dergrees plus, you can skip the blow dryer. To clean the glue off I used this stuff called Goo Gone(you can find it at Wal-mart or K-mart), then I used car wax on the shaved area.

 

heres mine

 

Hope that helps

Mike
