lol you can even see where the sticker is cracking around the edges near the bottom left of pic #2 as it's warping upward.

Give him a chance to respond. Maybe he got jibbed by a factory that was hired to make them. My silver backing looks like plastic, but I have not pried it away or anything.

Just got mine in today, can confirm, the CF is essentially a sticker with the backing still attached. Its pretty unimpressive. You can literally pull it off and stick on something else.
The molded Z looks great, but im willing to bet that all who keep it will have to put something together for the backplate. At the very least some vinyl cf on a plastic cutout will be a MAJOR upgrade. Im halfway to disputing my payment......payed 90 dollars for some molded black z's, could have just had my current ones professionally painted for half that......or just plastidipped for 5 bucks. evo-r has some 'splainin to do......... |

I'm currently in Los Angeles getting ready for SEMA. All the carbon back plates are made with real carbon fiber hard pressed sheets. Black carbon are made with 3K cross weave carbon. Silver are made with plaine weave carbon. As for the flat black back plate problem I will have some made with acrylic hard back plate. Will have these done once I get back from SEMA in Las Vegas. I have not got a chance to reply here since I was on the plane for 13 hrs.

BTW on the black CF version. On the back of it had some 3M paper film on it. That is just a paper to cover the adhesive back of the carbon plate. That part might confuse people think it is made of some cardboard.

Here's what I came up with.... Painted the CF with touch up... Looks pretty crappy up close so I'm gonna eventually get the body painted under the emblem when i get the door handles done professionally. The Z part of the emblem is quality...wish they would have offered color match as an option.
