I think you only get one letter or logo to put there, they have a size restraint.

I don't know if it's right but babelfish says this: 日本語
Those logo's and text on their website seem a lot bigger....

uhh....you just put the kanji for "Japanese language". if you wanted fairlady, you'd use this:

フェアレディZ

slynky, i think there'd be copyright violation issues galore using that Z.

Would you say there would be a problem using ANY kind of Z by itself on the seats?

If your car is read and it's black leather, something like this might look good:

That logo is beautiful. I think I'll reverse the color for my red car and have the Z in mostly red on the black leater with the silver outline. Katzskins?

IF there is no problem using a single letter "Z", I would be glad to try a few ideas out for you with that letter in Photoshop. I'm not a great designer, but it IS one of the major aspects of my job for the government. And I currently work for a small-time label doing album art and advertising design outside my regular government job.

Free, of course.

Sure! Red with silver outline against black leather would be my preference. A "restrained" Z would be preferred.

By restrained, I assume you mean NOT a lot of flair...just a little. NOT a wild and crazy Z but not just block letters.
