Evidently a lot of thought went into some like the obnoxious chrome billboards on the back of Escalades

This post is exclusively for the enjoyment of my friend Chekov. Won't they have to give him a higher trade in value now?







That is all.

BB,
Thanks, I really appreciate that. But you forgot to place an arrow on the Mercedes-Benz front plate frame on the second picture. At any rate, it’s a good example of how rebadging, debadging, under-badging, over-badging or any other kind of badge tinkering can get out of hand.

I didn't make the notations, just saw this and reposted it. I bet it made you smile though, didn't it? Happy Monday!

It sure did. And in addition, over half of the responders in this thread so far have voted to leave the G stock. It makes me feel I was a minority candidate in an election that I just won.

My wife and I were driving today and got behind a 350Z. My wife looked and said "hey look that car has been defaced!" I almost agree with her though I did explain that it's debadging not defacing.

Naked or Strip Tease??

I like the naked look on the G's that have been significantly modded. Debadged mostly stock G's....not so much.

At a minimum, the INFINITI on the trunk has to go. I am a anew G owner and after looking at it all weekend while waxing, I debadged the "INFINITI" trunk billboard tonight and it looks so much cleaner. Just didn't seem seem to fit.

I partially debadged mine just kept the Mt Fuji on it. Keeps it clean IMO. In the future I may remove the Mt Fuji. Likely once I get a paint match deck lid spoiler.

Lol Roxx, I forgot all about this poll thread. Kinda glad you brought it back up as there's a whole new group of members that love it, hate it, or just want to argue about something new
