i dont like the skyline badging, specifically because people who do it are just trying to jump on the JDM bandwagon. IF the car was in the U.S. as a Nissan 350GT, and a Infiniti G35 in Japan (if Japan had infiniti) EVERYONE WOULD BE SWITCHING OVER TO THE G35 BADGING. Putting a Nissan emblem on my Infiniti just seems retarted, we have Nissan and Infiniti here and Infiniti is above Nissan, just like Lexus/toyota Acura/honda etc... its just as gay when people put Honda badges on their integras/RSX's, it WHACK!!!

Does that body kit and spoiler look a little out of place or is the paint not colormatched?

If you're going to do Skyline badging at all this is how it needs to look. None of the Skyline/Mt. Fuji emblem BS!!! No such thing as an Infiniti Skyline.

Just do what you like. I know some won't like mine, but that was never the reason I did it. I wanted to ditch all of the Infiniti emblems on the exterior. After installing the rear spoiler (before the black diffuser was on), it was just too plain on IP, IMO. I added the 350GT because I had it, but I'm one who really prefers nice symmetry, so I added the NISMO on the left. I'm sporting enough NIMSO items, IMO, to justify the additional badge. And speaking purely of the asthetics, I like the way the 350GT looks a lot better than the G35 emblem.

Is it a NISMO 350GT? Of course not (the S1 has been a big inspiration). But now, when the wrong people ask what kind of car it is, I can simply reply, with a grin, 'Nissan makes that!"




The 350GT emblem is placed a bit higher than the template dictated, as it looked better closer to the rear spoiler. The NISMO was just placed according to where the 350GT is. Both are straight and even... ...despite it not looking that way in some pics/angles. I think I spent over an hour measuring a ton of times and then laying the tape down for a proper line... ...and then measuring everything several more times. The curve of the trunk complicated matters.

Also thinking of rebadging, do most do the grille also or just leave as is?

What I will say is that Nissan Skyline 350GTs and Infiniti G35s DO EXIST, what does not exist are Infiniti Skyline G35s, Infiniti 350GTs, Nissan G35s, Nissan Skyline G35s....you get the drift.



do you live near by Irvine?
I think I saw your car after my sister graduation from UC Irvine
