Nismo Strut Tower Bar info needed

Might be cool to powdercoat over the emblem and then a clear coat on top, so its like an embossed Nismo then instead of just being a stick on..?

hmmm Great idea! I'm going to get mine powder coated and was wondering what to do about the emblem, may just leave it on, I was going to powder coat the strut bar Silver to match the engine, by leaving the emblem on, it will look like all one piece of steel.

gotta watch out. Powdercoating sticks to metal. The sticker isnt metal. So it may not stick to it properly (probably best to ask a powdercoater what exactly would happen)

just sayin should probably look this up first.

Mike powdercoats the Nissan sticker on the brake calipers without issue, should be fine but never hurts to ask.

what he does there is powdercoat the calipers. Apply the vinyl sticker. Then clear it over. I believe. But yah its best to ask him directly lol.

I don't think that the NISMO emblem on my NISMO strut bar is a sticker, seems to be metal?
