Why just the rear emblem? Did you do this yourself or a shop do it? looks good!

I took it off and delivered it to a shop, and did the re-install myself. I like to try to do all the work on my vehicles, but paint isnt one thing that im qualified for lol.

I dont like the look of a shaved front end. Im putting the black pearl emblem on the front.

Very, very nice! I just got my door handles painted and the difference is amazing.

I think it looks like a 350z now. That's just me.

I like the door handles. Not much for the shave rear though.
I got behind a car that had all of its emblems shaved and I still to this day don't know what it was.

Is your license plate Roman Numerals, or does it mean something?

It's 370 in Roman numerals. Clever.

I got lazy and didn't even investigate. Should have realized with the "CCC".
