I am considering full or partial de-badging of my 2010 AC 3.5. I would leave the Nissan burger, and either leave the rest of the trunk clean or perhaps substitute a couple of other things in place of the stock badging. I'm sure it's come up many times before, but I did a forum search and didn't find much. I would appreciate any and all comments (realizing that this could become a topic of passion for some).

Everything but the burger. This way when you pull up to a light next no an SI you can crush his dreams when he thinks he has you. I smoked my burger too.

Thanks for the input. I think when I have my Nismo cat-back installed I'll put on nismo badging. I'm considering both the block letters (with the red "o") and the script version. Any thoughts on that? I noticed that Ranga14 has the block-letter-red-o version on his de-badged AC in place of where the "3.5" was -- looks clean and elegant.

I took off everything but my burger. If I had the stillen front fascia, which removes the grille and its accompanying burger (ha! Pun wasn't intended, but I like it!), I'd remove the back, too. I like the symmetry that comes with having nothing but a burger on the front and back, and it'd irk me to have it on one end but not the other.

I took it all off. I like when people look at it and can't figure out what it is.

I left the burgers on but put the ALTIMA from the back trunk and put it on the engine cover, a little different from everyone else. The 2.5S is in a drawer somewhere??
