Finally shaved Max's butt
Been thinkin bout it for a while, finally got out my "tools" and took off a couple rear emblems. I'm now deciding if I want to make the emblems gold and put em back on. I like the gold edition Maximas (seen very, very few) but I like the shaved look too. Well anyways, here's a pic, dont want the thread to be worthless :)

never seen a gold edition maxima? it looks real nice... pretty nice on white, awsome on black. but thats from the factory with the gold plating, not just spray paint or somethin. I think i'm just gonna keep it shaved - it was a pain to get all the crap off, might as well leave it off!
|
Damn...looks pretty good on Glacier Pearl. What did you guys use? Hairdryer and floss?
|
Triple8Sol, I used a hairdryer, floss, and some bug and tar remover to de-goo.

am I the only one who thought you were going to talk about shavedmax?

Initially, I thought he was talking about his dog, Max. :grinno:
|
i used a plastic gym membership card (kinda like a credit card) to get the emblems off, then my fingernails to get the glue stuff off. Nothin like some good ol elbow grease! :)
|
That looks nice
|
After gettin the emblems off, and most of the sticky stuff with your fingernail, what specific paint-safe products have you guys used to get off the rest of the "goo"
|
Definately don't throw them back on in Gold. It'll look lousy with the chrome hamburger. Ya gotta coordinate.
|
nah wouldnt leave the chrome hamburger if i put them on gold, but I'm just gonna leave it shaved. looks nice. i didnt use any goo-remover. got it all off with my fingernail (now its kinda deformed, but thats ok, it'll grow back)
|
nice a$$!

Anyone ever paint the keyhole on the trunk? I was thinking about it awhile back but got lazy.
