Ever since I've seen the custommaxim.com cefiro emblem for the maxima on Flava_24/7's maxima, june 2009 MOTM, I've wanted it for when I would get my '96 GLE painted. I desperately searched the internet but couldn't find a seller anywhere. I decided to pm Flava_24/7 who told me that it has since been discontinued for a while. I searched this site and found out that custommaxima.com previously had sold this item. I then got in contact with Tom a week ago from custommaxima.com and asked him about the emblem. He was very nice and professional and seemed like he's an enthusiast for the maxima like me.

He told me he would try to get in contact with a supplier to see if they could be able to remake these emblems and that he would get back to me. He called me up a few days later telling me that he would be able to get this done and that he would be getting a batch soon within a week. Shortly after, the emblems were up in the site. I happened to have ordered a pair of the aluminum with black.

Thanks to Tom! Apparently Tom is the new owner (for those that have experienced poor customer service in the past with the old ownership).

I have the aluminum with white bought it from paradox systems, but they no longer carry the emblem. And the white one shown is mine, look at the sides I had to cut it down, cause it was too big

 

Good job bringing them back, BTW mine is has a carbon fiber backing.

 

is that your emblem shown flava??

 

looks good.

 

Sure as H3ll looks like it huh?
Especially with it being that its on a 95-96 grill. Which would also explain why its soooo small.
Funny how CM is using a pic of my emblem offering it as a Black one, when its actually CF print.

 

you notice are emblems are different, but they offer them both??? So they sell one like mine, already cut down to fit??

 

So this one is yours?

Your grill used to be blue?
Why did you cut the emblem? When I had mine on the 97-99 grill I dremeled the grill to fit and then painted it.

 

I always wanted one but didn't want to copy flava :x

 

the pic is over saturated thats why it looks blue. Thats what I meant, i dremeled it down

 

have had the black version on my dash (between the airbag & glovebox) for years...it's a nice subtle touch.

 

ditto, but mine's carbon fiber

 

You dremeled the emblem or the grill?

 

Flava, did u have it made CF or did u buy it like that. if so, where?

 

Its not real CF, its a printed simulation that it was made with. So yes, I bought it like that.

 

While I was searching to find out which site sold this emblem I came across custommaxima, but I remember reading that paradox site also sold them.

For Those who have previoulsy had these emblems, where did u happen to have bought them?

 

i dremeled the emblem, look closely at the sides of it

 

Uh, I thought this was covered already. Custom Maxima used to have them, and do once again. Paradox also had them and they were also available on Ebay,... just as everything else is.

Yeah, thats what I thought, thats why I asked earlier why you would trim the emblem and not the grill. The whole point of doing it, should be to have it to where it looks like it somewhat belongs.

 

not those damn black euro corner lamps :/

 

that does not look too bad

 

I just e-mailed Tom and made him aware of this thread I started. He visited this thread and this is what he had to say:

"...I really appreciate you posting the thread. Apparently, the old owner of CustomMaxima.com and his staff gave very poor customer service. We are striving to change that image, and you have helped.

Answer is Yes! Luckily the crew has not started on cutting the black sheets for the background. I will have them use simulated carbon fiber instead. I will change your order now. Thank you for doing the research on this.

Thanks again,
Tom Schenk
CustomMaxima.com"

I hope he doesn't mind me posting this.

 

Sweet, I might have to get a carbon fiber one, good job getting them to make some more!

Thanks to you. It just complimented your car so much.

 

We are offering these in aluminum, sim carbon fiber, and black now. You guys interested in a group deal?

Hey Tom, on the website there's only a choice of Aluminum and CF, but not black.

It's too late for me for the group buy, I guess.
