I would say that by summer, the best mod that can be done for $100.00 is to fill the gas tank.

Photoshop is your friend
Take a pic, wipe those letters and see what you think

Look around there is quite a few people that will leave the mt. fuji and keep G35S while removing the "I N F I N I T I". In fact I keep thinking about doing that myself... I know its not exactly what you asked for but it might help you get an idea.

every one has their own way of doing it.. I have done my car, a few of my friends cars (BMW, Honda, VW, Audi etc...) and mine was by far the hardest. I warmed the emblems with a heatgun, took them off with dental floss, then used a combination off bug and tar remove, followed by rubbing compound, followed by wax.

When I debadged my girls RSX I used the same method. I just took my time with the fishing line not to rush anything so that I could do my best to avoid any scratches. Once everything was removed I followed up with some Megs Scratch X. There was no shadowing of the badges or scratches at all.

hair dryer, dental floss and goo gone... worked perfectly.
No scratches and shadowing only really occurs if you paint has years of sun exposure.

looked at the pics for the overlays, nice look, especially on the taillights. Easy to install? What's the life span in terms of exposure to sun, moisture etc? Just don't want em to look like crap in a couple of years...

If applied correctly should last a long time. I get people who've had my overlays for 6 years now email me or post on threads telling me how well they've held up and still going strong .
