Quick question!

Z370Z011 · 03-12-2013, 07:09 PM

Long story short, i have a PW and I'm going to be repainting my front bumper. That being said, should i shave off the front emblem while im at it?? I can always tape it back on if i hate it. Just need some opinions

To shave it you will have to fill the indention left by the hamburger.

You think it would be worth it in the end?

Someone else did it and it just looked awkward, like something really should be there. I'll search around and see if I can find it

I think it is worth it, looks so much cleaner.

Do that and get the EVO-R chrome Z emblem without a backplate.

Just curious. Do all debadged bumpers look awkward to you? Or is it 370z specific?

I want a hamburger that says "Datsun"

Actually I've debadged most of my prior cars, but when I saw the Z debadged I just thought it looked awkward. Just my opinion I guess.

Personally, i don't like the hamburguer and i would remove it on a heartbeat. It makes the front look a little more aggressive. If you shave it, please post pics... of your Z of course

LostSol · 03-13-2013, 08:10 AM

Here it is on a black Z

and white

The badge is like the cars mustache. We're so used to it that when you take it off, it's like "WOAH WTF HAPPENED TO YOUR FACE!!"

Thread needs a poll!

I like it better with an emblem, it helps to give the bumper definition
