New "Z" emblems
 

Not much of a DIY but they look pretty nice so I thought I'd post a picture of them. They came from Taiwan, here's the link.

2009 2014 JDM Nissan 370Z Front Rear Z Logo Emblems 2 PC | eBay

Got to wait on warmer & dryer weather to put them on.

Are the factory hamburgers on with just adhesive, or are there holes drilled into the bodywork for some kind of tabs ? I'm thinking if the originals can be removed with the old dental floss trick it should be a quick and easy project to pop them off and press the new JDM Z logos in place.

There are no holes in the body work. They're just held on with double sides 3M tape. There are some alignment pins sticking out of the body but they do not have to be cut off with these emblems. I had a tough time with the floss breaking & tried a suggestion from other forum members to use nylon fishing line. I believe that worked better. Getting the old residue off was a chore. Warming with a hair dryer was a definite help.

I got a warm enough day to install them. Here's a picture.

I thought it might have overdone the "Z's" on the back so I've removed the Z from the 370Z. Do you think I should put that Z back or not?

Definitely my favorite emblems for the simple fact they match the fender emblems perfectly.

Is it just me, or is that emblem on upside down?

You would be correct. I realized that after I stuck it on & hoped no one would notice.
(I got the front right)

yah, i think i would use the Z after 370, but your call. :D

:rofl2: hahaha!!!

i noticed it but didnt want to say. :icon17:

Nope. Remove the rest (370) and go for a cleaner look...:tiphat:

Or put the FairladyZ emblem on and watch other people pull up behind you and mouth the words "What's a FairladyZ?" If I had a nickel for every time I saw that........ I'd probably have a couple of bucks...

Because they ARE the fender emblems

Close, but they're not. These are 2 different sizes (larger than fender). Plus, fender emblems are round without the burger :tiphat:

I guess you didn't get it. They are hacked up side markers on a backing. Trust me, I know. I make them

Look closely, you'll see the texture of the side markers, look closer (pics aren't detailed enough) and you'll see "Stanley" on it

I got these from Taiwan, not that that means anything about their construction.

The first picture is the new rear emblem, there is no writing under the Z.

The second picture is the new front emblem, same.

The third picture is the side marker, you can see the writing under the Z.

The fourth picture is the side marker with a wonderful view of my missing thumb. (Thanks Mr. Ho Chi Minh)
