i went to this one. Great guys and the service was good too but the emblem is just crap so i ended up with the black license plate holder with the 370z on it.

i would have to sand off the chrome right?

I too am anxious to see whether this works on our emblems. A custom plater can remove the chrome, but it will cost you.
