SE-R Badging

What do you guys think about putting the SE-R badging from the Sentra onto a 2k2 Maxima. This would probably look pretty nice. Just got the idea so it might sound a little stupid. What are you thoughts??

i think its as tasteful as a honda owner putting a Type R badge or Type S badge on a car that it did not come with..

in my opinion.. i don't like it and i wouldn't do it..

the badge adds weight, which decreases performance .

but go ahead and load it up with NISMO , cefiro, and GT-R emblems. The Gustapo seems to think that its ok to do that.

To me that's like putting a Civic's 'Si' badge on an NSX..

dumb..

You know what

sooooo many maxima owners have that "GTR" badge...

I think putting a "SER" badge would be a little bit better


(not much though) heheh

I think a nice NASCAR sticker would be cool just above the license plate holder. I've never seen any badging at pepboys.

I don't know anything about PepBoys, but Advanced AutoParts sells all the APC badging.

IMHO, if a manufacturer can throw a spoiler on a car and then add GT badging, then there is no reason someone who has actually improved the power or handling of their car can't add badges. Not that I would do it personally.
