PreOrder EVO-R 370Z "Z" Front/Rear emblems

Sorry the pictures are kind of crappy. But I like the way it looks! Still not sure what I want to do w/ the rear 370z/Nismo emblems. Either removing them

Well at least now I know what they'll look like on my car. Now kinda wishing I had gotten the silver/black carbon but once I get the wheels done the all-black look will be nice.

Also: Keep your nismo badging at the very least!

I had the flash on w/ the two next to each other. They are not quite as shiny when on the car though.

Did you file down the knobs underneath so the backing would sit flush?

I have no clue... I took it to the dealership to get the car detailed and they replaced them for me. Sorry I'm of no help there.

What process did you guys use to get the badges off by the way? Previously I had to use a heat gun and fishing line because dental floss wasn't sturdy enough.

May well have been doing it wrong?

I slid a small screwdriver under an edge and pulled straight up. Came right off. The I used my fingers and rubbed the OEM 3m tape off. I used a utility knife to cut off all of the "nubs", then used Iso Alcohol to clean. Then peel and stick. Real easy.

I used a hairdryer (didn't have a heat gun) and a screwdriver to pull up with. Its a little colder here in MD and the oem stuff was a pain to get off when it got cold. And the stuff under my emblems didnt look like tape. It looked like some sort of epoxy/adhesive glue.
