370Z illuminated kick plate - yes or no?

winnre · 11-24-2013, 04:01 PM

I like the black plate with the silver Z on it. Now if they had a back illuminated plate I'd go for it, but silver looks too simple. Am I alone here?

i have the factory illuminated kick plates.

i can't remember the last time i've looked at them.

Have them. Other people think they look sweet, I don't notice them much.

It seems to be the first thing people notice and comment about when seeing the interior at night for the first time. I have always been a fan of illuminated kick plates, but having them or not having them is far from a deal breaker.

I don't notice them much either. First time I saw it I thought it was cool, but then that was it.

I think they look nice at night, don't notice them much though like others. You can always paint them black

I thought about getting them but without the aluminum pedals I feel it doesn't match the rest of the black interior.

I have the aluminum pedals but they are really far back. I think I will keep the black ones I got, I really do like the black over the sliver.

Got them everybody loves them in the dark cant see them in the day light ha ha

I don't really remember what it looks like without the lighted kick plate but I like them and would probably add if I didn't have them.

every one comments on mine, but the silver aluminum trim is very fragile. i have a small dent on both sides from doing my stereo install.

I have the OEM plates -- love em.

The post above me has a good alternate.

On my silver Z, the silver plate looked too bland.
