Hey guys,

I've been really wanting to de-bagde my 34 for a while now. Just wanting to know if anyone has done this, and the best way of doing it?

Also just want to confirm both the nissan and the skyline badges are put on with double sided tape on all 34 gt-t's? No actual lettering has any holes behind them?

Dunno about sedans, but coupe the Nissan and skyline badges are taped.

My old R34 had only the Nissan Badge at the back when I bought it, looked ok but always thought something was missing so I bought the nissan badging and looked much better.

But I must say, a debadged sedan looks very clean indeed

search the forum, most guys on here melt the glue by using a heat gun or hairdryer, and some fishing wire to pry the badge off. Then some cut and polish to remove any evidence of the badging

Previous owner didnt fully debadge the car..

But he just removed the 25GT badge on the back and replaced it with a NISMO one.

Looks clean ..

Was thinking of shaving the boot lid and doors, and removing the badges aswell.

Lemme' know how it goes.

Hey man, i've just done the same thing with my R34. Yes it is just stuck on. No hidden holes to worry about.

Here's a picture.

I want to remove my 25gt badge, but I was getting told that 'oh you know the paint will be faded or there will be a imprint' which kind of scared me. But looking at these cars it looks really clean, can you do it without a hair dryer and remove whatever is left with wax and grease remove?

ye mine had a nissan imprint from beneath it, just needed a good clean and it was all good.

use a heat gun, or a hairdryer to heat the spot up.

then get some hot water and pour it on the spot.(if you cant use a hairdryer, make sure you do this instead)

use some fishing line to work the glue.

a bit of bug and tar remover to remove the excess and its done.

    • yeah I've never understood that either.... And to answer an earlier question, I write the date on open bottles and throw them if more than 12 months old (which they almost always are, because I don't need to bleed them unless I'm changing lines/calipers etc in between)
    • Nah, the one that hit the boot was a big steel locker, around 6 foot height, 4 foot wide and 2 foot deep, empty it weighs about 15kg and had about that amount of stuff in it The photo didn't give a good representation of the actual damage, the large ding on the passenger side was about a inch deep, the one on the driver was about 1/2 inch deep, right on the curve, where the inner boot frame doesn't let you get behind it with a dolly Basically the same issue with getting behind the damage on the centre of the boot We could have filled it all with bog, but my OCD would be triggered every time I looked at it, knowing what hides beneath  As for the locker, I did get the shits with it and put it in the scap metal bin, but, I pulled it out and it is now sitting in the garage at home full of car servicing stuff, cleaning gear and random tools, it's going to pay for it's indiscretions
    • Whilst I typically don't cheap out on things, if I can save some money, like $1000, on a clean straight panel, that gives me $1000 to spend on other stuff, basically free money really 🤔 🤣
    • Is the toolbox that damaged the boot seal the same item that fell on the car during the storm a while back?
    • Who are you to deny yourself? I’ve said this many times to myself and apart from getting what I really want, I go quiet for a while whilst working out what I just did to my savings and how will I afford what it cost, then, next payday…
