To do this you need:

Z33 JDM emblems x 2

Dremel

Steady hands (admittedly, I had a buddy of mine who is more artistic than me assist with some of this...)

Z34 sidemarkers x 2

Some thin black plastic

3M emblem adhesive

Basically this will result in EXACTLY the same as the silver-base emblems you can buy for like $130 each (for only about $55 each in materials!), I'm just DIYing it.

Should look just as good/awful depending on your point of view

Ok, I guess I'm a dullard. I don't get what you're doing. I'm not being a jerk, my brain just can't figure it out.

Can't wait to see them mounted, but like they say in the movies ... "I've got a bad feeling about this!"

I did this but used the Nissan badges off the car along with filler and painted them up.

Are you going to put LEDs in them or leave them as is?
