I think someone here said that the rear badge on the roadster does not have holes/pins under it?

Can anyone confirm this?

I would like to remove the hamburger from the rear of my SS Roadster for a moother look. But if there are holes back there I don't want this so bad I am willing to pay for bodywork and painting.

Here are a few chops I did to see how it would look. I think it looks SWEEEEET.

one more chop

This time in DB. I think it looks even better on the DB since the logo stands out more on the blue.

I like it, and I'm going to do the same to my car, bump.

I think it looks a LOT better without them.

If it were not for the two hjoles under them they would be off my car right now, but I do not want to paint the entire hatch.

I may however get some kind of wing that covers that area.

Is it expensive for a body shop to weld the holes and then paint that area? Or is it impossible to do without painting the entire section?

There are no holes under them. I removed both of them. (Will upload pics when I get home.

hmmm i guess this is just on the roadster or maybe all 04's but i know the 03 coupes have holes in them

I think the holes were removed for 2004.5 if not all of 2004.

2004 Roadster DB Enthusiast confirmed no holes under Nissan Hamburger.

What about the 2004 Coupes??

Can anyong confirm this about the coupes?

ocjared

Can't confirm, but I don;t know why they would use different emblems for the coupe... seems like it would be more cost effective to go with a uniform approach.

pm Jason@performance, they just had to do significant body owrk on his car. He would know.

zpylot

It's not that it's different emblems, it's actually the same emblem. But the drunk lid is different between the Coupe and Roadster. I read somewhere on here that the 2004 Coupe still had the two holes under the Nissan badge.

ocjared, do you know the build date of your roadster? I was going to debadge mine and replace the front with a Z badge and leave the rear deck clean. My roadster build date was 11/04. Any body know for sure? I've noticed people parked behind me at red lights leaning forward to see what kind of car I'm driving or asking another passenger "what kind of car is that?". Kinda' fun!

zpylot

Did you mean to say that your build date was 11/03? My build date was 08/03 and my trunk lid does not have the holes.

Zeenut

Thanks! Yep, your right, it is 11/03! Gettin' ahead of myself! Well, it is Friday!

I didn't pay any attention to them until someone said they looked like hamburgers! Now I can't get the vision out of my head: Chromed Burger Kings!
