Did your Nissan's logo badge get stolen, vandalized, or tattered due to exposure to the elements? No matter what's wrong, you're probably familiarizing yourself with the aesthetic cons a missing or old Deck Lid Emblem has on your Nissan. But, before you rush out to your nearest auto parts store and buy a generic replacement, consider whether it will fit and look good! Otherwise, you may be left with a replacement emblem that looks less than authentic.
When planning a logo badge replacement for your Nissan, the first thing to consider is fitment. Emblem size and design may vary a little depending on the model, or even from one year to the following. Make sure your new Deck Lid Emblem is specifically made for your model and year by shopping directly from Nissan Parts.
Another important thing to consider when buying a replacement emblem is whether you're dealing with one on the hood or side of your vehicle, or on the deck or trunk lid. If you're planning on restoring the one on the back of your Nissan sedan, convertible, or SUV, it's essential that you order a Deck Lid Emblem that's designed for this position!
Once you receive your new Deck Lid Emblem, you're ready to start working. Though replacing a Deck Lid Emblem is relatively easy to do at-home, always refer to your Nissan manual or your local Nissan experts for professional advice.
In most cases, you'll start by prying off the current logo badge. Taking the logo badge off will likely require you to apply mild heat to the spot with a blow dryer or heat gun and prying the badge loose with a tool. Next, clean the area with a special glue removing solution and alcohol-soaked wipes. Wait for the spot to dry before outlining the precise “landing pad” for your new emblem with masking tape, or another paint-safe tape. After you've zeroed in on the position for your new Deck Lid Emblem, remove the adhesive backing, and stick it to your Nissan, and hold it in place for a couple of minutes to let it bond. Next, you're good to take your amped up Nissan out for a spin.
