My thoughts in regards to reflector location if I went with white lamps. The factory solution (and I hate to say this but...) looks like an after thought. This is just a concept right now

I have clear tails. Not that I want to add more but might have to add reflectors down there. I like your concept

I did 2 years ago!

And I added a dark silver Supercharged Nissan Xterra badge and a "custom" Detroit Tuned one just above it. Look at my signature for pics

I removed ALL my badges, except for the S in the fenders. Super clean. Color matched the door handles and gas door also. And recently removed the rear wiper(no pics on this yet) Check my gallery for pics

Sorry, no hard feelings but I like the badges. I know, it makes it easier to wax and all but now it looks "stripped of its glory".

Last but not least, I do like the paint color though. It looks nice.

My Cooper S badge is long gone. I think it looks much better without it, plus I don't have to worry about wax getting stuck around the edges.

I too removed my 'Cooper' and 'S' badges. My clean tail can be seen in my gallery.

I had the hatch repainted last week due to a rusting eggshell scratch, and my body guy quoted me to replace the missing badges, thinking I was not aware that they were missing or should be there. I had to politely explain that I removed them intentionally due to my disdain for chrome.

Um... Am I gonna get a beating for this? lol.

I actually "added" a badge to the little guy... I know, I know... Crazy, right?

Relocated the Cooper (actually body-shop did it by mistake when fixing it [search "Horror Story #3."]), and I just added the Sport logo...



I like it, to be honest... Though all those pictures here are also kickin'!
Take care,
Leo.
