I have a white 3.5SE and was deciding whether if i should debadge just the Altima and the 3.5se v6 and leave the Nissan burger on, or just take it all off. i haven't seen much white A/C's debadged.

I kinda think it looks a bit naked in the rear if i debadge the whole rear, but i also like the fact people do not know what car it is and cant look at the back to check.

looks pretty good with just the burger on.

btw, isn't it illegal now in Mass to have a plate frame now?

That must be a recent development; I remember dealerships in MA and in Nashua NH putting them on cars as recently as a year or two ago.

My parents just bought a used 4Runner in Acton last summer, and I'm pretty sure it came with one.

imo white looks better with the burger... maybe if you get a spoiler no burger would look better. Thats just me.

Was in a fender bender...they body shop ordered a new bumper and painted the diffuser by accident. They offered to paint it matte black, but i kinda liked it color matched, so i kept it. But i would imagine you could get a body shop to paint it for somewhere between 1-2 bills...

+1. Leave the Nissan burger. I think it looks better like that. Without it the backend is too plain.

I left mine on, to each his own. I painted the nissan lettering inside the same color of the car, blue on all four bugers, engine, front grille, steering wheel, and trunk. I also painted the silver trim inside with blue to give it the retro look.
