Dont buy this

KillerBee370

I'm going to do mine in flat black. My doorhandles won't be far behind.

SoCal 370Z

Somehow this doesn't surprise me.

Thanks Steve,
Maybe I will get them painted black then.
I just like the clean look. I have always debadged all of my cars, although I did wind up rebadging the vette as the front looked to big and plain without the crossed flags.

Will definitely need a nice DIY or plenty of pictures for this.
Mike is right, if you take the badges off it gives it a clean look but can also really open up and make it look big. There was a picture of a 370Z (red) with the 370z removed and it just looked to open, but he was putting the Fairlady Z badge on so it was temporary.

i just like the clean look you get afterwords. i hate chrome so everything on my car that was chrome i painted it black. the only thing thats left are my headlights and i havent decided what to do with them.

Some people (me included) don't like the Nissan 'burger' logo - partly because of its ugly looks and partly because, in general, the brand name 'Nissan' can have negative associations for people with sports cars - they are looked down on by some.

On the other hand, a nice big 'Z' in the middle of your car, front and rear, has an element of kudos - the Z cars are well respected, so promote the Z and hide the Nissan! I know I'm not alone in this thought. Re-badging is one of the first things I've done to both of my Z's. I also like the idea of a 'clean look - but I can't be bothered with all that time and effort in achieving it.

If you can't find a Z badge yet, the idea of sanding and painting the 'burger' is the best one - You don't need to de-chrome it cos it ain't chrome.

It looks like there are badges available for the front but none for the rear - is anyone coming out with a Z for the rear?

thezstore said their first batch was defective, i'm guessing you bought one form the first production batch

Curious to see what the black ones are like - they are quite expensive there though and it looks like there is still no rear emblem and thats the first one I want to replace....

armensti

defective in the rear yes but its still a very ugly thing to do to your car. i rather have a blacked out nissan sign then to take the side marker of the car and glue it on a piece of carbon fiber and use it as a emblem.

before you guys waste 80 bucks make sure its returnable or at least see it in person UNDER THE SUN AND ON YOUR CAR

Some on else on here already removed and painted theirs on here. They end up pretty nice. I forgot who.

If I had already bought them, that would be a good idea. I don't think I'd buy them just to paint them though, I'd rather wait for someone to come out with something good

Any update on the Z emblems?
