NO, ABSOLUTELY HATED IT!

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.

i paint a lot of my stuff in the garage. with normal paints, the overspray is not sticky. it's usually just dust. plasti-dip is completely different. everwhere it lands the thing is sticky...and WD40 is the only thing that really worked fast enough for me to remove it. which meant i had to wash the car again, and re-apply sealant from scratch.

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.
