opinions on painting emblems and decals

takimbe · 05-08-2009, 03:39 AM

Well guys, I have heard opinions on these matters, but not from Z owners. What are your thoughts on putting decals on your car (if you have the parts installed of course). I was thinking about putting the decals Stillen gave me as well as the370z.com's decal on it once i become a premium member. nothing huge, just small ones, probably in the rear quarter panels.

Also, has anyone thought about painting their emblems (370Z, Nissan) flat black? I saw it one a few cars and they looked pretty good on the darker colors.

btw I have a PG w/sport package.

I thought those only fit the front and NOT the back.

yep, says it clearly, only works for front. if im gonna black them out, im gonna do it to all the emblems, not just the front.

Just say NO to decals...tacky but that's JMO. YMMV

I cant get myself to put any decals on my car. However, I do have a "bullydog" decal on the back window of my truck (have a bullydog programmer) cause it just looks so damn cool...

Thanks for the replies so far! I am definitely on the fence about it too. I guess itll go decal-less for now. I havent gotten my plates yet, so the Stillen Racing License plate cover is there for now...
