Since the mountain can't be moved down, I prefer leaving that and "Infiniti" for balance, but removing the "G35/S/X."

I like this debadged setup the most. It resembles the European cars where the brand name is not spelled (i.e. I N F I N I T I). You'd never see a Mercedes Benz written all over a Benz's rear, nor Audi or BMW.

I think I'll be removing the INFINITI lettering as well and leave the mt. fuji with the G35S on.

Hope you don't mind, I PS-ed you car



For poops and giggles, I used this inspiration to look at the chrome grill on my G and noticed the Fuji emblem is a seperate piece from the grill (atleast thats what it looks like to me anyways)

Shane's avatar was the next thing on the screen, so I grabbed that and PS-ed it in about 5 mins, sorry Shane it's a bad PS, hope you don't mind either

A crappy 5 min jobber, but it gives you an idea of a lowered "fuji" and no "G35S"

It looks like something isn't right with no "INFINITY" across the back. Maybe taking off the g35s......but I think it looks best as is. The back just looks too plain without.

John, that's how I'm going to go with my trunk. Just removing the written INFINITI and leaving the mountain/G35S.

Maybe I'm going against the grain, but I like the S part of the G35S. I don't really care if someone know that I'm driving an Infiniti, would rather know that they know have performance aspirations

Even then, if I could take it all off, I'd rather do that.

Any case, cheers
Chris

I am glad someone mentioned this. Infiniti needs to have an instantly recognizable symbol. Mercedes, BMW, and Audi don't need to write out their names on the back. Hopefully one day, the "Mt. Fuji" will do just the same.

I think the trunk would look much better if the G35s was moved to the right side of the rear bumper. Moving the Mt Fuji down to the center and keeping the G35S at the upper right clutters the trunk all over again. With our larger than usual tail lights and tall flat smooth trunk it just flows better that way. IMHO...

I like all of the badges on the G35. I think that certain cars look good debadged... while other look good with the badges.

With or without................?

I removed everything but the Mt Fuji emblem. I've seen a few Gs with
nothing on the trunklid and that look good too! It's what ever you prefer.
