Front/Rear Z Emblems

Well, after much searching and trying to find pictures I think I've narrowed it down to the two emblems I like the best:

If you have either of these, or have seen them in person, I would appreciate your thoughts on how they look, their build quality and durability. Also, if there are any other cool Z emblems feel free to suggest.

For the large Z emblem I'm not 100% sold on the carbon fiber so I was thinking of doing the ones without any backing but are there any issues with seeing any holes or flaws in the uncovered parts? Thanks, in advance, for any input you may have.

P.S. Pics of them on your car are always a plus if you have them!

I was reluctant to put them on in the beginning as well because of the CF backing but it looks good :tup:

I like them both. Can not go wrong with either.

I have had bothe of these emblems. The first ones design I liked better and bought them for the carbon fiber aspect of them. When I got them I was a little disappointed that the only CF was a small diak that fits beh8nd the emblem. I also hated how the adheaive strips make the emblem set up, off the CF disk.

The second emblem looks great from the pictures. What you get though is youraide blinker light mounted to the CF base. Looks ok but it doea bulge up quite a bit. Look at your side blinker from the side it has a pretty good rise.

I am currently teying to make my own CF emblems. I will probably make the stock nissan ones and see how they turn out.

Thanks for everyone's input and the pictures! I have decided to do the "Big Z" emblem with no backing. I just ordered it from evo-r.net and I also bought a can of gunmetal plasti dip and glossifier to, hopefully, match my gunmetal sport wheels!

Don't you need the backing to cover the dimples left over from removing the stock emblems?

I've read that several replacements require you to "trim" the dimples for the new emblem to fit so I'm hoping it will look ok. I suppose I'll find out when I remove the rear emblem and test fit the new one...lol.

wow, i like the chrome looking ones (for my silver). :)

good idea for those that removed the "370Z" emblem when you replaced with these Z emblems. :tup:

im not into having repetitive emblems. like "370Z" then a "Z" then a "NISMO" then NISMO plateframe, and throw in a 'FAIRLADY' in there, etc. :shakes head: it's like we get it. it's a Z. how many times do you need to tell us it's a Z?

KeVoH 10-25-2013 10:20 AM

Sub'd!. I like the Evor-R ones with no backing.. and would like to know a little more info/pics if they can be installed without trimming or doing any kind of body work.
Cheers

I agree, I'm definitely going to remove the 370Z as well.
