Default Nismo Badge Damage

Hey guys,

I have had my car a week and realized something awful. My Nismo badge has a small knick and a small dent. I never really payed attention and now it is really bugging me. I bought the car at West Covina Nissan and I sent PMs to Justin and Jeff. They said they dont think they can get that part and to call nissan. I am about to call them but wanted to know if any other nismo owners have had this problem and if so how did you take care of it.

-Ronnie

I imagine they might be costly...I'd be willing to consider paying a fabricator to make one....

This would likely be the easiest solution. They could make a new one or perhaps even repair it.

I have access to a laser engraver whenever I want, I'm gonna look at my badge when I get home on Thursday and see if I can find something similar to try to duplicate it on.

Kinda forgot about this until I got in my car the other night... there's a gouge in mine from something too
It'll definitely motivate me to see if I can find out how to duplicate it...

Great...perhaps a mock up wouldn't have to resemble the original but could be customized to an owners preference...

Thoughts anyone?
