Wow... thinking of buying them from the dealer now. If they don't fit... apply dual sided adhesive. :)

I'm laughing thinking of the various comments I'd make to my wife if a saw this done.

Last time I saw a Camry w/ a 'L' badge...I think I went with 'wanker'.

I think that is a dumb idea. Like people who buy an E350 Mercedes Benz and slap the AMG and 6.3 litre badges on it, and trying to tell people it's an AMG E class. I know someone who did that to their 2007 E-Class sedan, and he is telling everyone that it's an AMG E-Class that retails for close to $100K. I say be proud of what you got. If I wanted Infiniti, I would have bought an FX.

I agree. Funny how when I had the G35C, all the kids were doing Skyline badge swaps. My guess is, the OP is more concerned about making people think he spent more money on his truck then he did, as opposed to "messing with the heads" of infiniti owners.

I know if I saw a Pathfinder running around with Infiniti badges on it, my first reaction wouldn't be, "Wow, what is that?". More like,"OMG, look at what this idiot did!!"

Maybe it is a dumb idea... but since I don't have $50K to shell out on a QX56, I chose to do a badge swap for fun. We've had a lot of reactions. It's been fun. Too much free time on my hands? Maybe... but it was fun to do regardless. :)

Next thing we will see is a "embarrassed of my Nissan" forum.

Awww, we're just giving you a hard time!! No hard feelings.

"Whatever floats your boat".

I'd rather see a badge swap over 20"+ rims on a pathfinder anyday!

I think it is Funny to mess with peoples heads like the badge swap, I removed the LE from my Pathy and stuck a new LIMITED badge from a Ford Explorer, the badge is actually very nice. and it looks great.

We added an X to the end of our SE from the '07 SE model. We get some chuckles from people.
