Dude I am glad you posted this becuase I learned the hard way.
The eblem has two allignment pins that go into the whole on the trunk..
IF you are not careful whil removing it you will crack and peel of your pain like I did to mine and I had to get the whole spoiler repainted..

I sugggets getting a heat gun or a blow dryer.. Heat it the 3m tape underneath the emblem and take your time getting it off. Because these cars are older the paint is less forgiving...

You will be left with two ugly wholes..stick another emblem in place of have it filled and painted..

Good luck.

The Q45 emblem has no holes. The infiniti badge has two holes, if you use the JDM nissan badge it covers the holes.. Use a thick dental floss or fishing line and youll be fine. I did mine with no problems. Came out sweet.

If you do happen to leave some sticky residue behind, a rubber wheel will take it off in no time.

I took mine off with dental floss kinda sawed it back and forth and Goof Off; it took it right off and looks awesome.

But, if your paint isn't in great condition or old some paint might come with and it'll look horrible.

So lets clear this up.

On the 98 Q45t Models.

The Q45t has NO HOLES.

The infiniti oval emblem has NO HOLES?

And the I N F I N I T I has NO HOLES.


BUT

The 00+

(I N F I N I T I) bar above the license plates HAS HOLES.

Other then that, the other emblems in the 00+ models has no holes just like the 99-.

I just took off the Q45t emblem, it was super easy. Only took me 2mins maxed. But getting the leftover glue and crap is a bitch.
