I agree. The V2 looks like it could be an OEM variant (it basically is) and the emblem helps it keep that look, which I think is a good thing.

It looks much, MUCH cleaner without the emblem. I had mine shaved for that very reason at the time of install. If the Nissan emblems weren't so damn huge, there would be a better reason to leave it on. But you want the viewer's eye to be drawn to the bumper, not to the giant shiny piece of plastic on its face.

I left my emblem on to keep some of the semi-OEM look.

Lol I had the same problem when I had my V2. I have a black car so the Chrome emblem really popped and I think detracted from the bumper. I had a Black Pearl emblem on it for awhile and then I decided after I repainted it to just shave it.

I think Shaving it makes it look much cleaner IMO but its all personal preference.

Do what makes you happy, not what some else likes, because your going to be driving the car!
