Nice. The carbon fiber trim looks way better than the silver on the badge. My car is black so I think it should turn out pretty good.

OP - looks great! Way to turn a "negative" into a "positive" :tup:

My vote is to debadge completely...

I love it!!!

Looks great! Now, get rid of the side flashers/emblems and it would look totally clean. :bowdown:

I don't know if I like the front, it makes it look more slopy like the nismo, but man, the rear looks amazing! Super clean looking... Take the 370z off!

I'm gonna agree with this, although unique, it just sticks out now because its silver with no other silver to offset it. Perhaps painting them a glossy black or something might help them blend in more while still standing out??

I like it for the front, but I think I'd keep the rear one personally... Excellent job on it and that is a sweet deal for the price! :tup:

You know what, I'm glad I'm not the only person who thinks our cars look like a frog from certain angles

+1

It'll look better without any badging AND you have got to lose the dealer plate holder in lieu of a plain black one.

Pics when finished please?:pics:

I say take the '370' part out of the '370 Z' logo and just have the letter 'Z'. That would look cool and original I think.

happytheman 06-22-2011 06:29 AM

^that would be like the Toyota trucks back in the 80's with only the YO remaining on the tail gate. Meh...I'd say all or nothing.
