This is not really worth it to buy or sell as it is exactly the same as the 96-97 Infiniti I30. The only difference is that it says "C E F I R O" instead of the "I N F I N I T I" Emblem. All one needed to do is to replace the symbol.

Well, Good luck!

I don't know how hard it is to pull the letters off the plastic without damaging the whole piece... .so I actuallly bought the whole center oplique with the word cefiro on it. It fits perfect.

if you get the oplique with the license plate in the middle, i think you may have to take it to paint to match your car right? Then if you run the license plate in the middle, is it going to look weird if our rear bumpers have the license plate on there as well? I would try to buy a new rear bumper that didn't have the license plate cut out, but i have no idea where to get that.

Honestly, I think the oplique with the blank middle would look pretty clean, possibly trick people into thinking you had a Q45 from the back. HEhehehe.

sweet, it should come out very cleeeeeean. Post some pics when you're done! Maybe SyCefiro can bring that piece in for you, or make a special request with Harry at Paradox systems. They have a bunch of hookups, great guys to deal with.

That center piece oplique was a stock part for some models of cefiro in asia. I can't remember where I saw it, maybe Phillipines or Taiwan?

Easier than flossing your teeth, but uses the same technique.

Let your car (or just the rear) stay out in the sun for an hour. Take some regular strength floss and slide it between the letters and the plastic. Using a gentle sawing motion, move the floss down behind the letter until it pops off.

You can also use the same procedure to remove the badges.

And then use a dab of rubbing alcohol (on a soft cloth) to remove the adhesive residue. I also like to rinse off the excess alcohol with a water dampened cloth.

It's simple.
