Nissan Emblem?

I did most of a re-badge, and i'd like to know who thinks getting a nissan emblem would complete it, or be tacky (not to say the whole rebadge isnt tacky to begin with, hah)

i've seen both done, what's your preference


obviously not the best pictures, but you get the idea






nissan emblem to complete it? yes/no

not my style but imo, you need the nissan badge to complete the look, but then you better have it up front as well. id also do the oem "skyline" illuminated door sills and the jdm rear tails!

yeah im gonna do the kick panels and all that.

it looks awkward half done, but i just dont have all the cash to do the whole "conversion" at once haha.

does anyone know if they sell the nissan grille emblem that snaps in, just like our infiniti ones do?

This may sound funny, but I think this looks better on the coupes than on the sedans.
Plus, we pay good money for the upscaled Infiniti. Most people don't have a clue what a Nissan Skyline is and they just see the Nissan badge... it's like shaving $10K off your car's value.

If you're gonna do this, you need to do it all and all at once. Inside and out, right down to the clock and airbag.... everything.
The half done look just doesn't work for me. I'm not bashing though. If you like it, then that's cool.

Oh BTW, the car will cruise along better if you put the wheels back on.

+1 I had given it some thought before but ended up talking myself out of it as I felt it would be half complete if I just did the emblems. Then I thought about the streering wheel, engine cover, clock, nav screen, seats and I quickly got away from that idea. Don't get me wrong I like the idea but the cost of getting it done right would just be too much to make it worth it.

people, people people people.

i just want something different than every other 40 year old woman driving the same car

whether or not it looks better on a coupe or a sedan, i have a sedan, and i gotta work with that.

i just asked if you thought the nissan badge was overkill, or going almost too far in making it look like its japanese cousin, that's it.

leave my sticker alone (: its simply a disclaimer before a fine hoe gets in the passenger seat. duh. she cant say she didnt see it coming.
