Red370 · 06-03-2010, 12:07 PM

excellent work, if these parts could be made, you have my money.

CBRich · 06-03-2010, 01:12 PM

Shifter surround is on point.

That shifter trim is epic.

Wow! I am late to the party.

kenchan · 06-03-2010, 01:50 PM

wow, im really liking #2. matching set for front/rear/center caps would be fantastic.

Those Z badges never look good while the remainder of the rectangular hamburger wings bit is still there. Half arsed at best.

I know it's a pain to do, but why don't people fill out the hole and do a proper, more simple round Z logo instead?

Not that I'm going to be wanting any mods, but replacing all the tacky fake metal on the interior with real metal would get my vote.

The body filling could eventually lead to cracking.

in for a shifter surround, if it gets made.

Interesting... Looks like we might not have to give up on the #0 design after all, at least for the front. We might be able cover the two nubs with the ring. What about covering the square with a small, low, color matched piece thats connected to the diagonal section of the z

Something similar to this

notice the red part sits completely below the Z, and rests inside the rectangular void on the bumper. Might look shitty up close but from a few feet back I bet it'd look good as long as its a tight fit and painted well.

By #0 do you mean this one?

If I have something that connects to the diagonal section of the letter Z what shape should I make? Because I don't think a small rectangle going side ways will look good....cuz we're now back to the hamburger style or have people mix up with it looking like the old school Z logo....

Ahh, nevermind...i see the pics now
hmm...i dunno....i personally wouldn't go with that design but I'll let others vote.

I noticed you took a pic with the camera, wouldn't a print screen be faster?

Just press "Print Screen" button on your keyboard and the Ctrl+V to paste it in Window's Paint program. And you can then save it as .JPG after moving and cropping. Good luck!

So, I'm stuck on trying to figure out the alignment tabs that protrudes out of the bumper, I need dimensions.....does that mean I need to take mine off?

I really don't want to do that....anyone already have their emblems off already and don't mind doing that for us? I can always design the emblem in a way where I can just over estimate the holes location or even counter sink bore a step circular shape on the rear side of the emblem....but I really prefer to be able to re-use those existing tabs for alignment as they're already there.
