you missed the two on the seats, engine cover, door sills, and your infiniti clock which is digital on the JDM skyline

I've seen some really sleak G's where debadging added to the look.
As far as rebadging, it took me some time to understand why somebody would do this. But, I do understand now!! The more I see the more I like
I vote for a complete rebadge at least on the outside.
However, BEWARE this may give reason for the authorities to pull you over!!!
Car (Nissan) not matching the registration (Infiniti). I've heard of it happening.

Rebadge only if you plan on doing the interior too. It's kinda tacky to have a nissan on the outside, infiniti on the inside. Do the seats, get an airbag cover, mod the clock, and the kick panels as well.
Threads like this make me hate my car.

You'll just end up looking like an idiot.
Once again this is personal opinion and nothing against you or your G. Your car, your choice.

I've never really understood the strong feelings here. The reason it's badged infiniti if because Americans like their luxury cars branded separate, and the reason it's a g35 is because focus groups showed that Americans take cars more seriously when their names are letters and numbers than if they're words. It's still a skyline. And infinitis are still nissans.
I bought my car used and it came debadged in the rear. I like the skyline name better so I've got skyline lettering on order. I think the infiniti badge flows better with our gorgeous front grille so it's staying in place. If you're looking for a full conversion then good for you but I don't think it's one extreme or the other. It's subtle, it speaks to the car's heritige... End of story IMO.

Jeez they're just badges, no need to get your panties in a bunch. If that's his style, that's his style. There are some sick rebadged G35s on this site (RedskylineGT, etc) that are so nice, you don't even car whether it's skyline or g35 badged. Even if you think badges are wack, think of how there are soo many worse things that can be done to our cars...
Please don't put a Nissan badge on your car. Taking the Infiniti badges off and just putting "SKYLINE" and "350GT" is fine, I guess. IMO unless you are RHD with no Infiniti emblems anywhere, you aren't JDM.
That being said, the Skyline and 350GT can be pulled of with class, as some have done on this site. Regardless, it's your car, so do what you want.
