Default Z-emblem

I got this for my Z today. I want to install it, but I'm going to wait til spring, so I can buff up the front bumper, before I apply it.

I like that it's satin finish. One of the things that bothers me about the Z is that the 370z emblem on the back is satin, but the Nissan hamburgers are chrome. Putting this Z on the front makes two out of three satin. I want to keep the Nissan logo on the back, but I am planning to make it satin somehow. possibly spaying some satin finish lacquer over it.
Anyone have another idea on how to make the Nissan logo satin?

That's the same one i have and i like it too. I think to get a more satin look on the back hamburger you would have to actually paint it a satin silver otherwise it will probably just look like dull chrome.

That's probably a better idea, I think I'll do that. Thanks!
