to debadge or not debadge? 96'SE

So I'd like your opinion on my 96 Maxima SE 5 speed White on 18" Niche Chrome Rims with Charcoal Cloth Interior. I've had it 2 months, and I like the look of debadged cars. The car is SWEET as is! I debadged my Uncle's 2007 G35 and it looks sweet and sleek. I don't know about my Maxima though, the trunk key kinda throws off the look with it debadged. I photo-shop'd the pictures. What do you guys think? 1. Leave it as is. 2. Remove the Nissan Emblem and leave the 'M A X I M A' 3. Remove all trunk emblems.

Personally I am going with leaving the "Maxima" on there since it is the gold letters and looks fly, and removing the small nissan emblem... Thanks for your input!










Thanks again.

i'd leave the hamburger symbol. IMO, it's a cleaner look and plus most people know it's a Maxi.....GL

Agree! I am going to pull off the M_A_X_I_M_A badge and pull off the GLE one as well, leaving only the Nissan emblem

I like it fully debadged too. I recently debadged mine. When I bought my max it didn't come with the hamburger though.

I dont know...I think fully de-badged 95-96 Maximas look fugly..let me repeat that.. FUGLY! hahaha. 97-99 can pull it off but not ours. The furthest I'd say is leaving it with just M A X I M A but other than that its all BLA. You've already done it but just thought I'd offer my opinion
