I had some trunk damage, and when I got to the shop they didnt put the emblems back on, so I told them to leave them off

Maybe I'm just too old to understand the whole debadgeing thing
I can understand why the Hyundai Genesis crowd wants to remove Hyundai badging since it still has some "cheapness" associated w/ it. Some emblems look ugly like the Toyota badge, but Mt Fuji is one of the coolest emblems there is IMO, I like it on there. I could see removing the G25 badge if you were trying to convey that you had a G37, but that would be pretty low. At any rate, you did a nice job and it does give a clean look, just not my cup of tea.

I'm 41. I just think it looks better clean and it is much easier to wash and wax without that stuff in the way.

As far as the emblems go... I couldn't care less what other people think about what I drive. I'll be full stealth (no outside emblems) before you know it. Mt Fuji will still be on the steering wheel and embroidered in the seats.

Not the best picture, since the shine is reflecting big-time, but you can see it came out pretty good.
Nice...I'm thinking of doing the same when the weather gets a lil warmer here...but not completely naked, just the dealer badge and part of the OEM...I may leave the "G37"

Is there a hole behind Infiniti trunk emblem ?

Is that OEM trunk spoiler you have on your car?
No, there are no holes behind any of the emblems on the trunk.

Yes, that is the OEM sedan rear deck spoiler offered on 09+ sedans. However, you can fit the spoiler on the 07-08 sedans too.
