Question Couple questions on g35 trunks??? just look and take 2 seconds to reply THANK YOU

Two different things im wondering about. Just in general what is a good price/what price should i expect when smoking my tail lights? Honestly have no idea and just dont want to get ripped. Also how do you get your trunk to be clear of the INFINITI/G35 Lettering?? THANK YOU

dont SMOKE your taillights!!! they look perfect as is, you'll thank me later. SEARCH DEBADGE and you'll find your answer for your second question you posted.

If its OB, do NOT smoke them, any other color, go for it. You can remove the lettering by yourself with the proper use of a hairdryer and dental floss.

ive seen plenty of smoked (painted or overlay'd) tails that dont look good up close. now my tails have been paint matched on the top half and lightly smoked on the bottom half. nobody else has anything like em its quite hard to get a good pic showing what they look like.......lol

Debadging, use our SEARCH and watch out for misinformation but the subject has been discussed a gazillion times. Use hair dryer....fishing line....GooGone....ScratchX and Wax. Use nothing else for Debadging!!
Smoked tails are a matter of taste, some like it others don't! Also take into consideration that they are illegal in most states and you may receive a violation.

Smoking tails is ugly... I've only seen one or two cars that it looked good on and those were lightly sprayed professionally, not overlays.

But price depends on how you want to have it smoked and where you are/what you can do yourself.

Turtle wax bug and tar remover and a fine fishing line.... that's what i used to debadge my infiniti emblem..


Use nite-shade or something to paint the tail lights. I suggest not painting the reverse lights... looks better just white.
