Rear 370Z Emblem Removal or Replacement?

I have been thinking about just removing 370, keeping the Z. I want to replace the nissan badges when something comes out also.

CWJ,
that looks really nice.
Did you reuse the "Z"? what kind of "foam tape" did you use?

If you guys use goo gone to remove anything off the car, make sure you wash it and reseal that part with wax.

Yes, I just reused the Z. I think its 3m auto tape. I actually like the car better without the Z, but I scratched the car with my fingernail, taking it off. So if you are going to remove any of the emblems use the fishing line and no nails!!!

3M double sided tape. Servo tape from a hobby shop would work as well probably.... they have a clear thin one out now instead of the old school black/grey stuff.

That's something I pondered. My budy with a 240Z joked about it and was kinda surpised when I told him it was a cool idea. He started rooting through his parts drawers right away

So does anyone know if there are any replacements for the rear Nissan hamburger yet? I replaced the front emblem with the 350z (z with 3 squares in the center portion of the Z), however, can not find an emblem that fits correctly for the rear Nissan hamburger.
