I want to replace the Nissan Emblem on the rear and front grill on my 2009 Nissan Muarno LE with an Infiniti emblem. I would also like to replace the Nissan Logo on the steering wheel as well with an Infiniti emblem. I am not sure if the emblems from an FX or EX or the such would work. Not really sure how to go about this project.
I am located in the Washington DC area. Does anyone know of a place that could do this type of custom modification?
Any assistance would be GREATLY appreciated.

So you just want to fool people into think Infiniti made a brand new car that looks like a 2009 Nissan Murano?

Sorry, but if I saw this on the road I would have to laugh at you.
I don't mean to be rude but this mod is just not a good idea. This ranks up there with those stupid side vents people keep sticking on Grand Marquis's.
But that is just my $0.02. If you are dead set on doing it just order it from the dealership. I am sure they can get you what you need.

That's a different idea. You have to start with the basic comparison. Body badges are easy but the grill emblems wiould be shaped differently. I have never checked to see if the grill badge even unbolts. If it does, then its simple although you would probably still need to remove the Murano grill to modify the emblem slot for the Infinity badge. If the emblem is a unit, you need to get a scrap FX grill, cut out the badge, and again modify the Murano grill to accept it.MuranoEggman wrote:I want to replace the Nissan Emblem on the rear and front grill on my 2009 Nissan Muarno LE with an Infiniti emblem.

I say make machine your ownIf you like that logo better you should use it, It would definately make people take a double take.
I think the rear may be easier changd than the front unless you use a rear logo to replace the front. The front logos on Infinitis are a molded part of the grill.
I would go a step further and invert the logo ( turn it upside down ).I would like to see the end result.

Don't do it! You will just make yourself look like a poor sap that's upset he couldn't afford an Infiniti EX/FX. Sport your Nissan proudly!
The idea of replacing an Acura Badge with a Honda badge on the likes of a TL, RL etc, makes more sense because of the history Acura plays in NA.

Ok sorry you would make the second person I would laugh at. Still looks fulgy to me but if you want to do it then go for it. I am all about making your car your own, this particular idea just seems a bit extreme on the waste of time and money scale but what do I know......
