Shaved emblems means taking letter out on trunk. There's MAXIMA and nissan emblem. Simply clean those area.
FSTB and RSB make you handle better by reducing body roll and cornering. Lowering spring and strut will make your ride better handle. If you want to learn more about mod check out maxima.org homepage, it tell all about popular mod you can do on maxima.

Hey BrianV, where did you buy the sealed box for you JL sub, how much, and what are the dimensions of it? I was also looking at the tails and it looks like you cracked the lenses. If you did, don't worry because I also cracked them when doing that red/clear mod. Are you going to leave the nissan emblem on the trunk or take it off. I shaved off everything and it looks very clean.

Nathan are there holes under the Nissan logo? I was concerned that there were so I haven't touched it yet. It's a 12" box that costs $45 at my local stereo shop (they kinda hook me up). I don't know the diameters, I'll measure and give them to you. I paid $165 for the FSTB and $220 for the RSB brand new. I installed them myself, but my friend did the majority of the sway bar installation. I get most stuff at cost from the shop that sponsored my last car: http://www.shinestreet.com

It's actually cost + 10%

BrianV, there are no holes behind the emblems. It's the exact same stuff behind the maxima emblem. Damn, those are sweet prices for the Stillen stuff, too bad I already bought a Vibrant FSTB.

I dunno I don't jack emblems. Goto my webpage and I gave pretty detailed instructions:

It's near the pics of the car with the shaved Maxima.

Also, I went ahead and shaved the Nissan logo as well using the same exact methods. Thanks for telling me Nathan!

The Integra was fat as hell, and if any chicks were into rice rockets they loved that car. It was the cleanest four door Integra I've ever seen. However, the Maxima bones out better, is more comfortable for the rear seat people, and people that I work with think it's more professional. I still wish I had both though.
