I've got a Datsun badge on the grille. Let's see them identify me now - they'll have to check the centercaps on my wheels.

"Red 1999 Nissan 4D" is what's on my title, damn old KS State Troopers not recognizin my 'ish, I can change plates with sentras and altimas AWL DAY (jk, the vin is on the title, but WHO CARES LET ME HAVE MY MOMENT)

I've been issued warnings under Nissan 4D also... My fave was in my 5th gen I got a warning that said "01 Nissan Sentra" with the plates in the wrong state (5th gen was also debaged)

I know they're only warnings, but it's still funny... shutup

I mostly like cops. Only given tickets I deserved, and warnings that should've been tickets. I just like my car being a mystery machine.

Depends on the car/color

I don't like 95-96 trunks at all and think they look worse debadged

I ditched the burger on my old 4gen and liked the look a lot- I felt it really cleaned up the rear deck.

I guess I haven't seen enough of them. Looks the same to me. What are the differences?

FTW, but not yet.

cuz thats usually followed by "really!? its fast"

Why do you guys call them badges? They are emblems! I say no emblems - go for the clean look.

like the look of most cars debadged but also think it would look better without the side molding on the doors

Debadged 2 years ago. Could still see the "maxima" for a year or so, now it all matches.

No spoiler+no sunroof visor+really low+debadged=sexy
