>Removing badges<

Im trying to make my sentra look less stock so im thinking about removing the badges ("Sentra" & "GXE") any one have any opinion on doing this, and do they just come off, or is there little holes behind them. Also how would you reccomend i remove them. Thanks

heat them up with a hair dryer or heat gun, then get something soft but strong (like dental floss) and slide it beneath the badge to "cut" the glue. They come off pretty easily, and there are no holes at all on any of the badges, even the plastic Nissan one at the top.

Re: >Removing badges<

why didn't the floss work?

you could try fishing line if the floss was too weak and broke, or if you want something else you could try one of those rubber putty knives.

Re: Re: >Removing badges<

The putty knife woulda been good but the flat head did the trick, didnt scratch it. I got the "SENTRA" off so now all thats on the trunk it the Nissan which im leaving alone. Could someone tell me how to put pictures on? Thanks.

Re: >Removing badges<

sounds good

one more thing, you might want to put a coat of wax over the area that the badges were just in case the car was waxed after the badges were on, or the glue holding the badges screwed up the wax. It's a good idea either way


and you need a host to put pictures up

Re: >Removing badges<

a web host, where you can upload your files and access them through a URL. Normally they either cost money or they're riddled with ads
