Overlays show quality? HELP

Im thinking about entering my first show ever this October here in Phoenix, HIN. I was wondering if I should take off the overlays before I enter, as I would guess judges would consider them "cheap" and not exactly professional. As I cannot afford something that top secret offers would it be better to take them off completely or leave them on? In my opinon they look great but the real question is are they show quality.

I'd say just stick with it. They look better on your car than without so just stunt wat ya got. I actually like the back alot better than the overlays on your headlights. So if you do wanna take something off...make it the front. Nice car ... Good luck at the show

If I was a judge Id be more interested to see if the badging on the exterior is the same as on the interior.. aka did you change all the interior bagdes to nissan as well?

Oh about the overlays, Def keep the rear one but im not to crazy on the fronts I kinda think they blend with the hood like somone said above. Just my .02

Ya nothing is there, all clean and blank. I was tired of driving next to other G's and getting the look of disappoitment and at shows all the questions and weird faces like I was a idiot. So I saved myself all the more trobule and took it off. Good advice.

Leave 'em on. The Judges won't be too concerned about your overlays. I've attened atleast 6 HIN's from New Jersey to Miami. It's not that important to them.

Thanks guys for the imput. Ive decided to leave them on. I cant decide what my next mod 'll be. The day before HIN I'm gonna drop it as low as I can, ya I know theres a big wheel gap but its because my driveway so, what else should I do? I just got the samco hoses installed and they really stand out in my engine bay what else could i do to the engine for show?
