you don't want to do that. if you take off the fuji, there would be a large oval cut into the grill. you'd have to mod the grill to make it look seemless... which would be pretty freakin awesome actually.

the front grill logo is held on with 2 small clips. The grill, badges, and center caps on the rims are at the painter's right now. The headlights and taillights are sent out to ivorygt to beblacked out and taillights smoked. The trunk release button is blacked out. The windows have been tinted all the way around including the sunroof. The windshield was tintedbwith 35 just for ****s and giggles. I just dropped my rims off at the power coaters to get done I gloss black. Everyone should be back on the car within 2 weeks.

Is there a "hole" after you take the emblem out of the front grille? I might debadge my entire car down the line sometime.

Need I say that pics will be a requirement as soon as youget everything put back together? That sounds like it will look fantastic. I'm very eager to see the results. What color?

I too was thinking of completely debadging when I get my car. Then I thought to perhaps leave only the Mt. Fuji logo emblem so that people would at least have a clue as to what the car is.

Then I got this idea and want to see what other opinions are: My car will be Black Obsidian With dark tint. How would it look if I had all the badging done in black chrome? Great or awful? I've never really seen anything like that so it would be unique. But what do you guys think?

Like this.






The headlights, grill, badges, trunk pop switch, taillights, and rim centers are at the painter till next frriday.

Headlight completely sprayed black gloss to match the car. Turn signals mounted into h3 projectors.

Front frill is getting painted to match the car.

Trunk pop switch is getting blacked out along with all the rear badges, and rim centers.

I need to take the car back to the dealership as soon as i get the lights back to have my k40, spolier, and remote start wired into my intelligent key, illuminated kick panels, and acent lighting. They are also working on getting a module to lock the door as soon as the car is put into gear, and so i can roll up the windows from the intelligent key. As you know the inteligent key only allows you to roll the window down from a distance but you can not have them go back up.

I have the JDM power folding side mirrors on order and should see them in a month or so if i'm lucky.

First off the price i was quoted after conversion to us dollars was 371 a mirror plus 91 dollars for the mirror button. This does not include shipping, taxes, or insurance. You also must run 2 additional wires to control the folding function. There is an nissan dealership in cali that imports alot of jdm parts. They got me the info and are checking up on how much shipping and the rest is going to cost me. They estimated i will have them in a month at the earliest seeing that i was the first request they have ever gotten for an 08 skyline parts. I actually pobally spent 4 hours calling around to try and find someone that could get me the parts i wanted. A few companies told me to give up and they could get me the whole car alot easier.

Probably true about being harder to find parts than a whole vehicle. If you ever get the part numbers, web link, or contacts that would be great. Thanks.

Evil Skiny,
Where did you get the remote start that works with the intelligent key? That and rolling up the windows from the key would be great.
TIA
