POLL: Debadged or 24k Gold Badge??

I have had my car debadged for a while and am about to get it painted from insurance money. I also just got a steal on the 24k gold nissan symbols and max symbol. I can't decide if I should leave it nice and cleanly debadged or a nice gold touch.....................HELP!!!! =)

Badges, we don't need no stinking badges!

Seriously, never put anything that resembles gold on a Maxima. Ever.

Haha Wrightsfd, nice quote

Yeah, gold just doesn't do the maxima good... If you want, you could throw it somewhere else on the car, maybe on the dash or something; who knows, it may look cool. Keep it debadged for sure tho

IMO gold badging looks horrible on every car. Black chrome (e.g: some Lexus ES300's) looks awesome.

I agree w/ Wisky, if Nissan had that Black Chrome badging as Toyota/Lexus does, that would be sweet-looking for our Max .. wonder if its possible to get replacement badges and spray them w/ high-gloss black ... IMO the gold badges look tacky, leave it debadged

I agree with the guys here, gold does not look good. If you want to put badges on again just go with the regular ones. I personally like the idea of makig them darker.

I like the badges, but I hate the gold ones. Go for debadged over gold.

I agree. I like badges. My max came with gold badges but I had them taken off and I had chrome badges put on.

But I would get the 24K gold badges and do something else with them like just glue them on the wall or something.
