I have these and know many others who have ordered them and liked them. Only downside is there are 2 bumps which these do not hide which is why there is a backplate on them.

These are nice too, only thing I don't like about them is the fact that there is a backplate.. do you mind posting pictures of your car with these (front and back)?

Don't mind, will occur tomorrow as I finally get a chance to install them after of months.
A few friends in Houston have them and they look great, what we did with all of them is the backplate is painted to match the color of the car so you really never see it.

Here's a picture of my front one. Like Dreamer said, we cut backplates and painted them body color.

much appreciated man, also how did you manage to paint the backplate to match the color of the car?

can you explain more what you mean by "cut the backplates"? and where did you get the paint from, and how were you able to re-attach the backplate after cutting it?

Congrats, it's upside down. Sorry, it's my pet peeve.

Decided to go with this emblem. A perfect match with the fenders.

How easy was it to do?

Consider a person who has very very little technical ability. Id love to detagg my rear, and add a black Z on the front and back.


edit: Looking at the OP's tags link. I am a bit nervous about trying to peel up the emblems.. and then figure out what to use to clean the glue..

Not hard, note I actually let gurneyeagle do it since he has done it before.
His steps were, heat up the old emblems with a hair dryer, slowly start getting underneath them to loosen the glue or whatever is used. Peel them off, then start to get all the extra glue off the bumper down to what you can fairly easily. Then he started to use something (will let him answer this part) to wipe it down and get all the last bits of glue left and clean the bumper.

After that line up the new emblems and stick them on. All in all it took us maybe a little over an hour to do both front & rear.
