Would like your opinion on my badges

I have a 96 I30t. Just got a chrome cefiro badge. Now I am having a hard time deciding how to arrange my rear badges. Give me your opion on what you think would look best.
I had already shaved the I30t part off a while ago. So I just have the Infiniti emblem and the Infiniti lettering below that.

Here is a pic of the rear of an I30 if you are unfamiliar.(just imagine it w/o the I30t part)

This is a few of the options I might do.

1. Just put the cefiro badge where the I30t used to be.

2. Shave off the Infiniti lettering and put it in it's place.

3. Shave everything and put the cefiro badge in old I30t spot.

4. Shave everything and put the cefiro badge in the middle where the infniti emblem was.

Let me know which you like best or any other ideas.

I think it would look best in the top left corner. I would like to see what the back would look like totally shaved, with the cefiro emblem in the corner tho.

read originall post. I had shaved the I30t already(it was just after the pic). It looks real good with just the emblem and the Infiniti lettering. I am also may just leave it how it is.

IMO, it probably looks good as is with just the Infiniti emblem and lettering.

Uh, I do! How much?

Hey Mike, I got to Phoenix to pick up that "gorgeous" 98 i30t...well it had a TON of cigarette burns... Needless to say I did not pick it up. I ended up buying an Acura 2.5TL...talk about a NICE car, it not as fast as the auto i30t, but the motor (inline 5) is silky smooth, the car is in GREAT shape and cost me almost $2000 less than the i30...now for all you haters out there, I still have my 96 i30 5spd. And I am keeping both for now!

Shave the whole back and take a pic, Id like to see what it looks like. I think it would look pretty clean, but I gotta see it to believe it.

I guess I am a little confused. You had not picked up the car yet when you posted the pics??. That's too bad the seller was not upfront about the condtion. I am sure the Acura is a nice ride, it's no I30t, but hey.

Inline 5? Do you mean inline 4? Or is there something I don't know?
What year is the TL? If you start posting on Honda-Acura.net you'll probably run across my brother over there.

That might happen. I am missing the last "I" in the infiniti lettering on the back. I noticed it was gone a few days ago. I went to my local Infiniti dealership and they want $50 for the lettering. Of course they don't have or won't sell me just the "I".
So now my car say "infinit", those little things really get on my nerves. Unless another I30 owner has an extra "I" that I can purchase then I am going to shave the whole thing.

The dealership want $$$$$, and will only sell me the whole thing, not just the I. Can anyone help me with finding an I. If I can't find one then I am going to shave the whole thing and maybe put on the cefiro emblem.
