The rear emblems are the only ones you can take off w/out holes.
The "240sx" on the left and "SE" or "LE" if you have that on the right.
These emblems can be removed by using a heat gun or a hair dryer to heat the glue behind them, then using a peice of string or dental floss and sliding it back and forth behind the emblem. This gently cuts the hot glue away from the emblem.
After they are off you will have to use sap/tar remover (goo gone or goof off work well) to remove the leftover glue.
Once all the glue is off, wash and wax the area where the emblems were.

The front (NISSAN) and rear (NISSAN) emblems are held in by screws and maybe glue as well. I wouldn't remove these if I were you.

 

Hey, i just got a 95 240 yesterday and i wanna take off all the emblems..reason being no one in my area (pickering, Ontario has a 240 and i rather keep people guessing, How do i take them off and are there any holes under the front and back ones?

 

well all the embelms are just stuck there with adhesive. what i did was to get pliers and a rag. open the pliers mouth, then wrap the pliers with the rag, then slowly get the tong part under the emblem and close the pliers on it (emblem) and lift up. it will come off and might break. dont worry just repeat. then there is going to be the adhesive. now there are a couple of ways of doing this.

1) you could use manual labor (have to use it anyways) and get a credit card, or something like it, and start jabbing at the adhesive to make it come off.

2) use WD-40 and spray it on the adhesive. wipe all the stuff off your car with a wet rag and BUT let it sit on the adhesive. after a few minutes use the credit card to jab at it to get the sticky stuff off.

3) there is also another way but i dont know what the stuff is called...kinda like WD-40. i used 1 & 2 and so far so good.

 

yours were held on by screws? i knew there were the holes and adhesive but i didn't remember the screws.

 

aah so no way to get it all off..hmm

 

Emblems

The Nissan hood emblem is held on by adhesive but it has 2 locator posts. In Japan the jdm silvias have an "S" logo instead of a "Nissan" one. You can get a "S" emblem at optionsautosalon.com

 

The front and rear "Nissan" emblems are not held by screws, but do leave two holes once removed. I can't give you any good tips because I remove mine the ghetto way....towel and screwdriver....DO NOT USE THAT METHOD. IMO the rear emblem should stay, but a sheild 'S' for the hood would be to bad. You'll get more looks of confusion.

 

my bad...I thought they were held in by screws. I didn't realize it was just a little post thingy.

 

I removed my rear ones with a heat gun..make sure you get it really hot or you are going to have an awful time getting the residue off and can end up scratching your paint off...i didnt know about the dental floss but I used a blade..which took me awhile to use since I didnt want to damage the paint. Bumper sticker removal crap works too..spray some on once you get most of it off and then use a towel.

Be careful with a heat gun too...I bought a nice new one a couple months back and when I was taking my emblem off (they are plastic) it started to melt and the glue caught on fire. :help oops

 

would a heat gun hurt the paint? ie cause it to bubble up?

good answer :aka47

 

not to like make anyone mad, but why remove the stuff?

To have a clean look.

 

color change

whouldn't it change the color? under the emblem? especially on 95' because it's 8 years old!
Just curious...

 

You could buff the area out where the old emblem used to be. It really depends on the condition of the paint. The heat gun (uesd sparingly) is the best way to go.

 

Are you ashamed of your car, or owning a Nissan? People that know of the car but never realy driven one seem to think they are quite fast. And Nissan is IMO the best japanese car company.

 

Me ashamed? No way! I left the rear Nissan emblem on. I removed the front one to put the Silvia "S" badge on and I removed the rear "240sx" emblem to put the "Silvia" badge on.

I still have yet to get the Silvia grill and side "K's" emblems.

Yup, I with you also.....I did the same thing. But I left the "SE" emblem in place.
