Nismo Badging on a Nismo Conversion?

Nismo refers to products like an a exhaust, a wheel, and aero parts, etc...It's like when you order H&R springs and they give you a sticker and you decide to put it on your car. It's not an H&R car now, instead, you're simply stating that you have their product on your car.

EDIT: I do understand Nissan has Nismo designated models though. It's open to interpretation...

Moreover, I'm can't be part of the Nismo Registry...
