need help with EVOR emblem instalation
I just received my front & rear emblems from the Z Store. Ordered them Tuesday & received them today (Friday). Super fast service.
The problem is, I haven't been able to figure out the installation. The instructions are just pictures & are a little vague. There is no 3M tape on the emblems themselves. The black discs you see in the pictures are carbon fiber discs with 3M tape on their backs. The discs will just fill the inside of the circles on the emblems (but I don't know what holds them in place). The rear emblem came with two half moon shaped pieces of 3M tape. Any help would be greatly appreciated. gpm |

This is what mine looks like on the back. Ordered from EVO himself.

I didn't keep it and sold it to another forum member who figured out how to install it. Meantime I found one I liked that resembles the side "Z"'s.

Motorsport! Rear "Z" Emblem, Carbon Fiber Base, 09-14 370Z - The Z Store! Nissan-Datsun 240Z-260Z-280Z-280ZX-300ZX(Z31/Z32)-350Z-370Z Parts
I got these. I installed mine with the adhesive glue? (Forgot what I used lol) but it was easy cause I just dipped them in a little bit and stuck them where the stock emblem used to be...just in case you want to change in the future |

I agree has anyone figured these damn things out?
Mine came with small 3m adhesive directly on the big part of the Z. So I took the film off the carbon fiber disc. Then removed the 3m backing on the small strip on the big part of the Z and adhered. Thats when the instructions start to fail me. I assume you then take off the 3M backing from the disc and use it to adhere the plain side of the half moons on bottom and top? The weird thing is the then the entire thing is held truly on only by the small strip on the Big part of the Z. Why don't they just have this crap pre set already! It would help if the instructions were in color so you could make out the last few pictures! |

Tried installing the front emblem as I need to get a dremmel to shave down the rear guide studs.
So it doesn't say you need to shave those on the front emblem but they don't line up for me. Not happy about these emblems. I guess you get what you paid for 40$ each. So I will be shaving down both then try installing. |

I just put the tape on the back of the emblems myself. It was not difficult. Also, the emblems are just soft plastic - the studs can be easily removed in seconds with a razor blade.

Also don't install them upside down!
