Badge removal

Has anyone tried removing the "G35" badge from the trunk
lid? I'd like to create a more symmetric and subdued finish
but don't want to scratch my paint or leave grommet holes
on the metal.

nail polish remover works really well, but besure to use a little bit... and wipe it off asap.

Jumpman's method was the way most people on the Audi TT boards did it.

Re: Badge removal

Use a old credit card and wedge it underneath the emblem. To put it back on, use 3M tape adhesive and a good eye! That's how I've done it before. I will have onxy emblems for the G by next week, if anyone is interested e-mail me jtesensky@vtaig.com or visit www.infinitipartsusa.com.

Re: Badge removal

Once you poped the G35 emblem out, either use goo gone or wd40 to let it sit and the clue will come off...

Re: Badge removal

THANKS to everyone for the help! This morning I used a hairdryer
and dental floss to separate the G35 badge from the rear trunk. It
didn't take very long at all. Then about 15 minutes of carefully using
the hairdryer, some WD-40 and a terry-cloth towel and all the glue
gum was removed - it's as if it was never there!

This list rocks - thanks again!

Re: Badge removal

putting skyline enblems require ordering the rear square plastic, and the JDM front grill.

the 2003.5 model will be easier, since there is no square with infiniti letters embedded on.
