i wanted to remove the nissan emblem on the trunk but wanted to see a pic first of how it would look. also whats the best method to remove that thing? thanx.

 

use hair dryer. hat it and then try to twist it or some peole put some wax and use credit card to remove it without scatching the paint. After removal use "Guff off" to take off the glue then wax it and you are done. I did this mod on my friends 99 maxima and you can't even tell that the maxima emblem was there

 

He's referring to the Nissan emblem, not the Maxima wording... I believe there are screws behind it that ya have to remove... and it'll leave 2 holes in the trunk of ya take it off...

 

Im not sure if there is screw or not becuase my buddy shaved his emblems and i dont believe there was any screws that he had to deal with unless his new R emblem had screws to fill the existing holes.

 

i took mine off and there are no screws, but taking the emblem off does leave two holes in your trunk. i only discovered this after i took mine off, so i just through a cheesy cf maxima emblem over the holes. hopefully this summer, i can get the holes shaved.

 

yeah btw your car looks really nice. A type R emblem would look sick in the center of your front top grille.

 

do that to your rice burner

 

if you take em off, why not put plugs in the holes and paint it with touch up paint?

 

I meant GTR

 

thanks for the compliments nismo. i think i'll wait on that GTR emblem till i have a skyline though...

 

nyauto - that's a good idea. know any place where i could get plugs to fill those holes?

 

home depot? hardware store... check out those places

 

that does seem like a pretty slick idea...i wonder if it would look good though without the nissan sign

 

should look not noticable, ive seen on past posts, people doing this for when they took off the front license plate (screws/holes)... im sure u could find it on here somewhere

 

how do u guys take off the maxima and the SE emblem without leaving glue on the paint...my friend did his and when the sun hits his car u can still see the outline of the maxima emblem...when i do mine i wanna make sure all my glue is taken off


thanks

 

make sure u heat it up with a blow dryer, then slide a credit card under it then use goo gone

 

that is one sweet max!!!

 

Thanks... guess I has half right... looks like either filling the holes or covering em up is the only solution...

 

Maximas with GTR emblems somehow look kinda but hey, everyone has their opinion...

 

i removed mine, filled the whole with bondo, and used touch up paint.
i liked it at first but after a year i decided i wanted something new and unique so i have the smaller emblem off a late 90s pathfinder

 

yeah i just kinda think they are cool, but thats why there is opinions and many other ways to go aroudn jstu one emblem.

 

NO EMBLEM



NEW EMBLEM

 

its make sense that you would like a GTR emblem since you have NISMO in your screename

 

Hair dryer? Just get it over and use an acetlyene torch on it!

 

he wants to remove the emblems...not the paint

 

When I debadged my trunk, I found that a product called "OOPS" removed the adhesive much better than GooGone. I bought it from Autozone.

 

OMG a torch hahahaha. that would take off everything down to the metal.

 

and your GTR emblem

 

I did mine with dental floss and bug & tar remover... little bit of elbow grease will always to the trick

 

Like already said... Goo Gone or Goof Off should work fine... better yet if its warm out...

 

wow i thought this was the easiest thing to do

 

Use A Heat Gun And Fishing Line Then Bug And Tar Remover!!!!!!
