I saw a recent vintage black Infinti G35 Coupe today in a parking lot, or maybe it was a G37. I did not look at it carefully because its owner was next to it.  All chrome details were removed from the rear, and all remaining chrome, including the front grille, was painted black.  The wheels were red around the outer circumference, and looked somewhat interesting.  On the whole, I thought the debadging and painting of the chrome  was quite unattractive.  It reminded me of someone who takes an intricately carved ceiling made of a fine wood, and paints it white. 

I realize that there are some who think debadging is cool, and apparently others who think painting chrome is also cool.  I think otherwise.     

Good point. I shouldn't genrealize about debadging.  I did not like debadging on the Infiniti G35/37, or painting the chrome black.
