***titanium Editions***

You know what I think would be awesome.......if they made an emblem or something for Titanium Editions....does anyone know if aftermarket companies make this and if so who and how much. Just a little something to go on the back...or maybe on the door like the Skyline's GT-R emblems. Not intimidating or anything...just think it would look cool and set us Titanium Editions apart from the rest.

Why would you want people to see TE on the back of your max? No one will get it, and those who get it won't care...

Can't you just buy the letter "T" for a Sentra to replace the "S" in "SE"?

Umm... just the fact that my TE wheels are more bling bling does the trick for me.

So what's next... you want to make Meridian Edition stickers too?

Geez. There's nothing wrong with a badge that says Titanium Edition. Changing the SE logo to say TE would be a cool subtle change.

Damn, people on this board are becoming bigger and bigger a$$holes every day

I happen to think it is a good original idea (I guess people couldn't use the "You should have searched" flame and instead took out the "Rice" flame. Whatever.

Having a TE emblem is just like the trim level emblems that are on all cars now....nothing wrong with making your Max stick out if done tastefully.

Haha, funny how bitter and retarded people can get when one person says "KILL IT, KILL IT NOW!" Everyone jumps on the bandwagon of "rice". You guys needn't be afraid to say, "yeah, not bad" when the consensus says otherwise. I, for one, like the idea and would love to have it on the front fender like on the 99 SE's. I thought that this thread would go another way, but it seems like any sort of decoration on a car is just flabbergastingly silly.

How incredibly out of context. Then again, Andy, I have noticed that you hate anything even remotely close to rice, no matter how low on the rice scale it may be. Anything can look good on any car, as long as it's done right, and not overdone. For example, a sticker or two, like the one kloogy has on his bottom front door, can look good. 20 stickers, of which you only own 4 products, is not a good thing.

IMO opinion the Max especially the 5th gen doenst look good with lots of stickers, it takes away the classy/sporty look of them and make them look ricey.

I'm just not into putting $2 stickers and different badging on the exterior of a $25,000 car. I think it really cheapens it. If I had a gun to my head and was forced to put stickers on my car, I would do it like Kloogy, but I am really not into it.

I'll admit that I've done some ricey stuff in my day (stuff that I consider ricey)- red calipers, loud exhaust, stickers, nitrous (on a car for purposes other than going to the track), changed my GXE Altima into an SE, etc..... I've gotten all of that crap out of my system now.

Now if Nissan had originally put a TE badge on the car, I would be all for it.

So you're saying kevinG's car is rice because it used to say SC on it?

In all honesty, I thought that the "SC" just looked like a broken "SE". His car isn't rice, but to answer your question, no, I didn't like that very much.
