Rear 370Z Emblem Removal or Replacement?

NYBladeZ · 09-29-2009, 01:02 PM

call me a freak on details but the 350z and the 370z have two different letter "Z's". I believe the 350z "Z" has 3 holes along it. I know it's the same letter but I'd want a 370z "Z" personally"

I am thinking of doing something a little different with mine so watch this space (but give me a few weeks!).

Thanks for the info on the 350Z emblem not fitting exactly

I got my Fairlady Z emblem in today, but there is no additional glue included. Is the adhesive side of the emblem enough to stick it on? No instructions were included, so I don't want to miss a step.

Meh, it looks big and obnoxious. IMHO.

The Z Store has a new front silver base "Z" emblem for $109.95.
It would look great on a black Z but kind of expensive.
I will wait for the price to drop.

I have seen some rearranging of emblems on other vehicles. Such as a 2500 Ram labeled as a 5200. Different and makes it stand out.

Thoughts on buying a 350 badge (for the '5') and making 357Z for those gun enthusiast? Could be cool, could scare off some people.

I have been trying to find every single thread on the forum about replacing the badges, and I think I did, at least the main ones. I'd really like to get rid of the Nissan ones, but there's just not much out there to choose from. From what I can tell most of the options are for the fronts only (although it appears per Modshack that they do fit on the back, almost, as long as it's solid or has a cross bar it should work on the back okay), and they are mostly 350Z badges. The only official ones I can find are just black chrome (black pearl) versions of the stock ones, which I personally don't see much point it doing. I'd prefer something that matches the door handles more.

I do like the ones from the Z store pictured above (which according to their site are literally made from old badges and the new side markers). So has anyone out there actually bought this version and installed it? I like the looks of it since it matches the side markers, but it's quite expensive, especially if I follow Modshack and put it on the rear too. Price has actually gone up since it came out, not down.

Any info from experience with these would be appreciated. Pictures would be awesome.

Cheers ---- Bonzo

Anybody else notice that the FairladyZ JDM emblem feels like you can just peel it off after putting it on? Mine has been on for a month and it seems like the smaller letters can shimmy left or right...

I'm wondering the same thing. I thought there was a post where the carbon fiber badges don't fit properly.

TipsZ · 12-27-2009, 12:02 PM

Hmm .. I really wish there were other options than paying $80 for carbon fiber and $110 for silver. I wish I was just crafty enough to put something over that huge Nissan hamburger .... grrr
