1. Purchase a set of JDM Z33 badges

2. Purchase a set of Z34 side markers.

3. Fire up the dremel. Carefully cut out the back of the Z33 emblems. The center circular piece with the Z logo is glued to the outer ring. Gently push this out in order to separate it from the outer ring -- you have to cut out the back first in order to push out the center piece (hollow on inside).

4. Dremel again. carefully chop off the back of the sidemarker, leaving the front circular part of the Z intact. Clean up any odd bits stuck inside the tinted lens of the marker. This separates the sidemarker from the rest of the assembly. Has to be cut -- don't see any other way to separate the circular marker from the rest.

5. Glue modified sidemarker circular piece to the outer ring of the Z33 badge.

6. Cut out a piece of black plastic and affix to the back of the new assembled badge with glue. This will keep your car's paint from being visible through the lens of the side marker.

7. Glue the new emblem to your car after removing the hamburger. Should fit perfectly in the grooves on front bumper, but will just cover up the grooved section on rear bumper (rear hamburger is a bit smaller for whatever reason).

8. Enjoy the new emblem and the kudos by fans; endure the mockery of haters
