It makes me happy you call it Sears Point still. Good luck out there.

Installed LEDs to replace the stock interior lights. Replaced vanity lights, trunk light and license plates lights. $36.01 shipped and 10 minutes of my time for brighter lights? I'll take it any day.

Now the only one left stock are the visor lights, but those are too hard to do..

Let me know how those lights turn out my Bruddah... I've been itching to do that mod myself... Now if only I didn't have to wait until December for my Fast Intentions exhaust!

Took it into my local Nissan dealership to fix a rattle that they created. I had them install a JDM turn signal stalk to operate my European fog light- it was the first one they ever did, so I guess they messed up a bit. My loaner car is a Nissan Altima 2.5S, and man is it Boring! My Z isnt a whole lot louder when casually cruising around, nor is the ride quality much worse. Boy, does this Altima feel slow! Plus, it's hard getting used to fellow drivers not rubbernecking in admiration at seemingly ever traffic signal!

I'm surprised more Z's aren't debadged. It looks so much cleaner, IMO.

I'll be debadging it as soon as I get mine.

I need to do this too. Is it safe to use nail polish remover on the Z to take off the sticker?

If it's just a vinyl sticker just heat it up with a hair dryer and it should peel right off.

I don't have a hair dryer, do you have any other suggestions?

If it sits out in the sun on a hot day, it should get plenty hot enough to peel it off. Just start at a corner carefully with your finger nail to get it started.

I'm not really bothered by the baging. Though sometimes I wish on the front It was the z logo instead of tthe Nissan logo.
