Winged Nissan emblem... where to get it?

Just wondering where you got the winged Nissan emblem, whoever it is that has it on the back of their Max. I love that, would like to know where you got it, and how it installed with respect to the current hamburger. I'm all debadged except for the center hamburger on the trunk, I think this would look great in its place!

Ebay, search under nissan emblem. It is plastic chrome and just sticks on. Pretty expensive for the plastic.

Hope this helps.

Actually when I bought mine, since it was one of the first, I paid $35.00 plus shipping, like everything else in life, the price always goes down after you buy it...

LOL, I think the wing emblem is ugly too. Just my opinion though. Most people hate our cars altogether so get use to the bashing.

Hey, I respect what you guys are feeling, no lost luv, my skin is too thick for that. My ride, my taste, nothing in modding is permanent, maybe when I get tired of it, I may lose it, right now I'm feeling it.



Peace all, thanks for the feedback...

I don't mind the bashing. I don't expect everyone to like what I do with my ride. Everyone has their likes and dislikes. All that matters is that I like it. Later Warren

that emblem looks hot on the 6th gen, fits in very well

however, i don't think i could put it on my fourth gen, but it looks like it belongs on the 2005's

OK guy's, we'll come clean as to why we prefer small custom emblems, in our live's (Mine and Warrens) we have been around a while and seen tons of shaved B$tichs, after a while of seeing so many, you tell the B$tch to get back in the room and put on some undies. Shaving is a zero dollar, no brainer mod, doing something different (embl;em redesign) may not be the greatest, but it's different... Anyone have better ideas verse old ones,
Sh&t I'm listening...

the emblem itself is fairly nice........The reason I don't like it is because of its "poser" factor........ it looks too much like a Bentley or Aston-Martin badge with "Nissan" in the center instead of "B" or 'Aston Martin'.

That said, it looks decent on a 6th gen, but would look like crap on any other gen.

Dude, I don't live in Beverly Hill's, Bentley and Aston-Martin, $hit it's all Chevy and Ford where I live.

In Southern Maryland, the only Eagle symbol you'll see on any vehicle is on a Harley Davidson. Anyway, people put all kinds of mods on their vehicles with similarities from other BANG'N rides. There's a thread out there of a Max owner who wants to put Altima SE-R or Q45 rims on his Max, It's All Good. I would rather have a badge on my ride similar to a Bentley or Aston-Martin badge, than a Ford Pinto or a Honda…

Peace bro, thanks for the feedback.

Agree, I plan on getting rid of the Chrome Screws down the road, right now though, looks better than the 2 holes the old Nissan Hamburger Emblem left behind.

I prefer the G35 rims myself, with my "custom" Nissan center cap of course.....then again, they do say "Nissan" on the back spokes, not "Infiniti", and they're lighter than my stock 17's....

Well they are stock, but just voicing my opinion.

Plus I'm a poser because I have GTR wheels on my max.

the emblem is fine, and it should only go on a 6th gen since it portrays a more classier look than the other generations. heck it, i could even see it on a q45 or m45.

...Love the look of the winged emblem. It's somewhat subtle, while at the same time classy and distinguishing.
