Rear emblems

Has anyone removed there rear emblems on there vehicle? Mainly the Infiniti badge? Do you know if it has the pre-slotted holes? I am looking at removing all the rear emblems and replacing them with a 350GT emblem and "SKYLINE" emblem but I am worried about the holes that might be left over by removing the INFINITI badge.

ANy suggestions.

No holes. Use mint flavored dental wax and a hairdryer. Than goo-gone to get rid of the residue. Make sure the floss is mint flavored, very important.

try 10-15 mins at most.

i was able to finish everything in about 10 mins.

it's not that difficult, but i suppose it's better not to rush things. take your time - just not 2 hours, hehe. good luck

Do yourself a favor and mark the emblem locations with tape, to simplify putting the new ones back on. Sure, they come with templates, but setting them down just above a line of tape would be a lot easier.

I used fishing line and Goo Gone to get rid of the residue.

or you can do what i did and raise them a bit higher as i removed all in teh rear now i only have up near the wing nismo on driverside and 350gt on pass side but i rasied them from where the g35 was cause i felt it was too low in my eyes

but tape lines are the best,
