Quick pics after the install note I don't know if the 2012 or older have this issue, but on the 2013 on the Front and Rear bumpers some sanding of little bumps are required.

Bumps on rear bumper

Still not sure what I want to do w/ the rear 370z/Nismo emblems. Either removing them or Plasti Dip....Having trouble deciding....

Frankly, I get a bit annoyed when people incorrectly refer to the 370Z as a 350Z -- not out of some kind of weird car guy snobbery, per se, but because I didn't buy a Z car until this most recent one, because I really didn't like the looks of the last gen one.

In other words, part of what I love about the 370Z is that is much nicer looking (to my eye) than its immediate predecessor.

I say leave the badging. It identifies the car for what it is to those without a discerning eye.

****WARNING****

Just confirmed with my body shop. The "carbon fiber backing" is a piece of tagboard with a carbon fiber-patterned sticker on it. Do not give these people your money.

The slightest bit of weather will instantly ruin these emblems! Even if you waterproof them, the sun will bleach out the "carbon fiber" very quickly.

Not good news, ordered mine 2 weeks ago.

Jordo! · 10-25-2012, 10:17 PM

^^^ The solution is a solid plastic backing, painted whatever color or with a circle of thin CF sheet adhered to it.

Basically were talking about chopping up coffee can lids and either using paint or buying this stuff to go on it Flexible carbon fibre sheet with self adhesive backing - Carbon Mods

I think 3M makes one with real cf also, but that's what I found after quick search.

EVO-R could offer this. If not, in the future folks could buy the one without a back and make their own.

If mine falls apart, I'll just make my own (though it would be nice if EVO-R could fix this problem and make up for it...)

dmhenderson · 10-25-2012, 10:20 PM

EVO-R needs to replace these things with something that you can actually stick on a freaking car or they need to leave.

I don't mean to sound harsh but this would be like buying an exhaust and receiving a cardboard wrapping paper roll/coffee can exhaust and going "oh hey let's give them a chance to make it right".

This is garbage. I'm not really willing to compromise or negotiate. Either give me what I paid for or don't let the door hit you in the butt on the way out and I'll pursue my refund through other means.

Its been raining all week. I just took these pictures in my garage

GaleForce · 10-25-2012, 10:38 PM

Wat is that? ^^^

dmhenderson · 10-25-2012, 10:38 PM

you can see the water between the plastic and the cardboard

Jasonle · 10-25-2012, 10:39 PM

This is very disappointing... I want a refund please
