As Per Your Request......
Because of your guys requests......
I removed the ugly the dealer sticker from the back of my Maxima... It looks much better....
It took me 2 hours to remove the paint from the dealer sticker and the 3.5 SL badge.

That does look good, except for the "3.5 GT"... sorry. 
How did you remove such thin decals (or were they actually paint?)? I still have my dealer's decal on, and had thought of removing it but have not yet. Still think it's doable after 3.5 years?

Very nice 2leet4u!
Looks clean. I assume you like it better without all that free advertising?
If it's stickers, you can peel off and use 'goo gone' to clean up finish.
If it's paint......
I'll let someone else chime in.
Again, she looks sweet Elite!

LOL..... so far the GT seems to be the "old ball" in the maxima bunch...
The main reason i did is because of status and to seperate my self from the group....
Instead of seeing a maxima 3.5 SL flying down the road, people will see a elite VQ with a 3.5 GT attached to the back.
It may not be much now, but as soon as im done modding this car, this year! You will notice its more than just a maxima....
With progress springs, magna flow exhausts, stillen body kit and g35 spolier, it wont look like a maxima anymore. Especially when i add ghost flames to the front of the car.... lol
I just want to be different, thats all...
oh and mustangs arent the only ones who carry GT. Some import cars carry the GT symbol.... Even Nissan.... The Skyline and 350 Z GT is a perfect example.

as for the painted dealership logo. I used my heat gun to melt the paint. Because of the factory clear coat on my car, the dealer logo would melt right off and not harm my paint. As soon as i saw the paint become liquidy, i took some goof off + water and wiped it off. I had to use Maguires 3 step wax job in order to buff out the residue and dull finish. After the wax job, it was shinny new again.... YAH!!!

Deus's car looks good because it is his car, his and only his. If everyone did all the same mods we would be back at square one and trust me as much as I love the way Deus's car looks (one of my favorites here) I wouldn't want somebody at the meet to tell me that it looks just like it. It wouldn't be mine....if you know what I mean. I don't want to be OWNED!

Well I didn't notice the dealer logo as much as I did the elite VQ and 3.5 GT. I guess I just prefer a less busy trunck lid I think you should remove the elite VQ since it's already on your plate. The Skyline and 350GT badges are reserved for us G35 folk
