this was a good idea, but it does look out of place. i think it would look awesome if it was just 6mt. remove the g35 (or replace the g35 with 6mt), and maybe removing infiniti as well.

Debadge was the first mod i did after getting 19's. I like the clean look it gives the car's a$$ end. My wife laughed at me for wasting my time but when I told her I could clean it in about 20 minutes less she "decided" she likes it.

That is a good idea, I was actually thinking about that yesterday. 6MT and the endless road only. I think they match.

I don't get why people would debadge. Usually the people who debadge are ones that bought a lower model and don't want anyone to know it's a DX instead of the LX. whats gonna happen when you go to resell your car and the dealer or prospective buyer asks why you debadged?

Good thinking! They can get even more on Ebay too.

Ugh, that looks terrible IMO, but whatever floats your boat. Kinda tacky to have to announce that you're a "6MT". I just let the Brembos say it for me.

well, at first glance, i noticed that his clock is integrated into his dash... which leads me to believe that he has an '05, which would not have the brembo's to 'say' anything.

Thumbs up

I personally like the look with just the Infiniti emblem on the rear. Here's a set of instructions to debadge the car to help some of you out!


1. Use a hairdryer on its hottest setting for ~1-2 minutes over the emblem (to heat up the adhesive behind the emblem)
2. Use Dental Floss to get behind the emblem and dislodge it from the car.
3. Use your fingernail to remove the excess glue.
4. Apply Goo Gone (or any similar adhesive remover) to remove the rest of the glue.
5. Wash off the chemical with soap and water.
6. Wash the soap off with lukewarm water.
7. Dry the paint.
8. Wax the surface.
9. Enjoy!

Very Perceptive of you No Brembos here. No brake dust either.
The plan is to remove everything except the Endless Road this spring or sooner if I can find a garage.
I may or may not leave the 6MT on, I think it matches the Infiniti lettering a lot more that the G35 lettering.
