Nismo badge? Pleasing or Poserish?

I just want some opinions about a moral dilemma.



I am thinking about adding a Nismo emblem to my grille. I know it is my car and I know that I am the one that makes the ultimate decision, so lets not even play that.



What I am looking for is, since I don't have any Nismo parts for my car, dare I say I don't know of any other than a shift ****... unless I wanted to take a 350z intake or something and attack it with a dremmel and fab it into an intake for the cold side of the turbo... anyway...


No nismo products on the car, but faaaar from stock.


Nismo badging yes or no???

Poser-ish if you place it horribly and you have a stock motor.

This somehow made me unexplainably uncomfortable.

It's all personal taste, if it were my car and i thought the badge was clean/understated but added to the look of the car and alluded to the fact the car was modded, I'd put it on. If it drew too much attention to itself i would leave it off.

If the car was factory without any mods, I'd call it poseur to put badges on it. As far as not having actual nismo parts, i could see the argument going both ways, just depends, but if you have enough mods who cares. I'd rather see a $40 FSTB and $160 in other mods than a $200 Nismo FSTB if that makes sense.

Luminous... Sounds like a stripper name... And that is stripperish advice. I like you maxima stripper. If you are a lady we have some interesting southeastern maxima shindigs that we will require your services... If you are a man i believe aackshun will be most interested... Provided you aren't allergic to strawberry jam.

I don't know any stripper's name, and that's very childish what you said, so I'm gonna leave this conversation thinking that your just some kid, good bye

to the poster, I understand that your looking for an opinion, but this is up to you, it's your car, and if you think it will look the way you want it to with the nismo badge then do it for your satisfaction, not others... you don't want to look at the car, and it's not the way you want it to look.
