Just debaged my new G35

Hi all -

Thanks to some great tips here I just debaged the rear deck of my new G35 couple (diamond graphite). I remove the "g35" and "infiniti" letters but left the logo.

I just lifted up a corner of each letter with my fingernail and then pried it up. A few needed some help so I used a thin plastic putty knife to pry them off. This worked well but I read another tip of using dental floss to saw them off which sounde like a good idea too.

I clean the glue off with "Goo Gone" spray citrus cleaner. I let it soak a minute and used a terry cloth towel to rub the rest of the glue off. As the final step I used some Meguiars Show Car Glaze polish to buff off a small film of the adhesive off the paint.

All in all it too ten minutes and I think makes nice improvement (see the pic).

Thanks to all the folks that posted ideas to get me doing this.

I give you three weeks before that mountain is gone! Thats what happened to me, first it was the G35, then about two weeks later I got the bug again and its all history. No regrets, the car looks unbeleivable!

Luv My G

same thing with me. Mt. Fuji was gone a month later. Now I have people asking "is this an acura or lexus?". I guess Infiniti still has some work to do on getting the name out there.

I think I'm going to do the same, I like the way that looks.

I have a black 2003, do you think the color will have faded by now? If so, don't want to debage then.
