if i decide to remove the "370Z" from the hatch, i'd probably sport the polished Z emblem.

the issue i have with that is the rear looks too much like the 350Z without the 370Z emblem at that location. and i never was a fan of the 350Z's overall appearance.

hahaha. wife and i were together 7-8years before we decided to have kids. my parent's nor in-laws said anything, but when we broke the news they were like "woooohooo~!!!"
i know bro... i use wd40 to remove the plasti dip when i paint the sti rims... let see if i do it but i dont know yet lool!!!

hahahaha. the "Z" emblems definitely look better than a black hamburger for sure.

unless you can paint or get decals for the NISSAN lettering. then that might look pretty good.
