are there any tricks to removing the Maxima and GLE emblems from the trunk lid? are they just attached by double-sided tape, or there are any aligning holes in the trunk? anything that will make the removal easier and leave the least residue?

thanks

 

The words: Maxima, GLE, SE, and GXE have no holes and can be removed with heat......The "Burger" on the trunk has holes, so I am told, and will leave visible holes.

 

I used heat, fishing line, and WD-40 to remove mine. Then put on a nice coat of wax after claying.

Good luck, and I know you will like it.

 

the holes ARE NOT visible if you fill them in and paint over them

 

I just used floss and Goof Off for the "Maxima SE"...

 

did u use heat puppetmaster???

 

all i did was pry mine off and polished it up worked perfect.

 

No generated heat, if that's what you're asking... but it was probably like 80-90 degs out when I did it.... so its not like I did it on a cold winter day.... I do think that you need a certain degree of warmth for the stuff to give when you're "flossing" it...

 

Removing the hamburger one on the trunk lid looks kind of wierd because of the empty space it leaves. That little "dip" where the emblem is shaped above the license plate, stands out more.

 

i didn't even bother with heat, i used fishing line and then a buffing compound to get rid of the glue

 

I agree... but Soonerfan's looks pretty good....

 

Yeah I guess that'll work too... I just found it easier doing it when it was warm out.... glue was slightly "softer"...

 

Talk about timing. I just took off my trunk lid Maxima and Nissan Emblems tonight. I replaced the Nissan emblem (thereby covering the two holes) with the Maxima emblem from Custom Enterprise, it looks very unique and cool!!
I left the SE emblem on for now. I also took off the front Nissan emblem and put another Maxima emblem up front. Much nicer looking than that generic Nissan emblem!!They are all attached by nothing else but double sided tape. I used dental floss and a little heat, and everything came right off, no problem.

 

Got pics??

 

Not yet. I'm waiting to lower my Max, then take some pics with my Turbo Supra and post em up!!

 

thank you.

i actually just ordered a nissan emblem from an 03 pathfinder. its about half the size.
and it sticks on in case i want to remove it later. will post pic after i get and install it.
