Any issues removing the front and/rear nissan badges?

[xyzdx]

Has anyone removed either the front, rear, or both of the nissan badges? Are there indents, holes, or other things that will be visible if I don't replace it with something? If I do have to replace it with something, what did you get instead? Please provide links and pictures.

I removed the rear on both of my Zs - just a sticker with no locating prongs. I use fishing line as a saw to remove it. Then I remove the sticky part with Ardex or Goo Gone. Ardex is better but hard to get as they generally sell to dealers only.
I put the removed Z on the crossbar inside and made it body color for a little bit of flair.

What does the rear look like now without the badge?

They meant the Nissan badge not Z

There are alignment dimples under the front badge. I was curious as well and there are YouTube videos that show it. Would definitely have to fill and paint them unless you put something over it like the ‘27 Z badge.

Both Z’s? Nice flex but why two? Just curious.

Because my wife absconded with the first one and decided to use it for her daily. I work for NNA / Infiniti. I got a killer deal on the second one. Couldn’t resist.
Unfortunately, hers is coming off its one year company lease soon - but I bought my Heritage so I’ll have it forever!
That’s why you might notice that the gray one has been left with stock pipes and everything else. I’ve done a few modifications to my heritage.
Sorry, didn’t mean to flex, just a perk of working for Nissan North America.

Very nice! I was just curious. It’s a fun car for sure! Enjoy them.

I was hoping you got one to keep as an under 1k mileage collector, and the other one to drive the hell out of! Now I have an idea...

I have heard from many members that the front has dimples, so you will nned to cover it with another badge or fill and then a wrap. The rear is integrated with our trunk release and pretty much has to stay, however i have seen a member paint it black, so it blends in better.

More like pimples, they stick out as guides to align the front emblem.

I did this exact thing. I was torn between placing it in the front or the trunk. Trunk it was.

Lol, mine just sits here on my desk. Haven't found a good place for it yet.
Tried to put red vinyl on the inside. Turned out pretty crappy, but I spent so long on it I can't bring myself to peel it off.
