The front of my Z is debadged. Unfortunately I had an accident and had to replace the front end a few weeks after i purchased the car back in 2009. The shop did a good job filling in the logo area, but over time the body filler settled and now you can see the outline from the right angle. For pics, log in to the forum from a computer and look through my albums. I'm on my phone now and can't post any of them.

Here is the only pic I have on my phone. It was taken right after the work was done. I love the front end without the badge, but wish the outline didn't reappear over time.

Rear 370Z Emblem Removal or Replacement?








With the exception of the last pic, the Red Z with with I think is the amuse rear bumper, all of these Zs have badges. Some are rebadged, but badged nonetheless. The OP is looking for de-badged Zs.

I see after a search that the Nissan emblem is recessed. That's too bad. So I'm thinking of getting the Z emblem replacement. They have them on eBay. I'm just not sure which one to get to fit in the recessed area.

I believe removing the z beige is called shaving. The OP never mentioned shaving. The only badge that can be easily de-badged is the 370Z badge. If OP meant shaving, then he needs to clarify his request.

So then I'm wrong on my terms as well. I thought he meant removing the Nissan logos.

In all my years on car forums I've never heard of shaving. Proving you learn something new every day.

Yes, whenever a recess needs to be filled and repainted, that is the term used. Shaved door handles for example.

Make sense. Thanks for the info.

No shaving for me. I'll just remove the 370z badge and replace the Nissan badge with this. It should look good on my grey Z.

Been thinking maybe the black emblem would look better than the satin silver on this. What do you think?

You are welcome.

Everyone has different tastes, so you will get 1000 different opinions when you ask about cosmetic mods. I for example like a bit of chrome and do not like black rims. But there many who will disagree with me. Bottom line is, it’s your car and you should do what you feel is best for you.
