Well I ran out today for a minute to finally post pics of this emblem. I liked the CF backing I've been seeing on different threads so I did my own backing with CF vinyl. It actually looks really sharp in person on a black Z. I hope this helps people. And please excuse the filth....it's been raining a lot in Florida.

EVO-R's look better. IMO.

These are a little stealthier I guess. Look like Nissan badges until you get close.

I thought about EVO's but when I saw it on some cars the Z looked to big for my liking.

Yeah I liked how it looked more like the nissan badge. Almost like it's from factory.

I like Cuse badges better as these are more subtle.
Do these badges require backing plate?
or can you fit the badges without backing plate?
how is the fitment on these badges?

Also can you post any clearer photos of these badges installed showing full front end and back end of car in similar viewing angles as shown by dmhenderson in his photos please.

No backing required.

I'll get better pics today. I took those with my phone earlier. The fitment is perfect and like I previously posted, no need to shave down the nubs under the factory emblem. They were cut to fit the car. They came with 3M tape already applied. It was just peel and stick. Looks great in person.

Thanks Cuse, I ordered the front only in satin after hearing some dissatisfaction with EvoR pieces. Post more pics if you can. :tiphat:

Just FYI - there's nothing wrong with the *carbon* backings on the evo-r badges. Confirmed by the shop my car is currently at. It's misleading because there's what appears to be a piece of white tagboard but it's some sort of 3m backing film.

The matte emblems have "issues" though and they're taking care of that.

Looks good. Thanks for the pictures

Wish the Z went just outside the middle bar.
