Number 2 is the best of those 3, but I still like the earlier ones that didn't have any filler the most . I'd shave my bumpers if I had to to make it work. Maybe offer 2 designs???

Right now I'm working on the wheel hub cap emblems....it'll be just like number 2 except better because it's a circle and hopefully there's nothing that restricts me to have to cover or work around. Does anyone know on top of their head if the Emblem on the hub cap is together with the hub cap? or does the emblem come off by itself?

Here's what I have for the wheel hub cap emblem...I this one we can do without the background fill-in.
![]() Hey AG, I actually know of a place in SF bay area that could do 3D printing of these parts.....check out www.protocafe.com I use them for prototyping for work...but the way the make these prototype (for fitting purposes of course) it's like 3D printing and it only takes a couple of days or less turn around time to make these models. But if we're making it out of machining, going this path does necessary mean we can machine it. PS> I sent you the file for the Wheel Hub Cap Emblem too...it's a draft Last edited by scruffydog; 06-03-2010 at 01:02 AM. |

Is anybody else worried about Nissan putting the kibosh on selling these to other members (even at cost) since they undoubtedly own the "Z" trademark?

The shifter surround is fantastic!

I will buy those shifter surrounds and emblems IMMEDIATELY if/when they are made. Will the shifter surround be a brushed aluminum finish with a polished 'Z' logo? Also I assume this will be ok if you have an auto?

Although I put the shifter surround together as one piece with the Z emblem, the "Z" emblem may (or may not) have to 2 piece depending if AG can actually machine that small of an emblem on top of the curved surface, but the idea is to replace the plastic trim with whatever metal material that's easy to machine and looks good....in this case, Aluminum is preferable. I still gotta check for dimensions for this part...i think i should get some fillet gauges to verify my work since this is a little bit more of a complicated part and how nicely it fits is pretty important as well. I'll keep you guys posted.
