that was directed at the shaving all the badges off a 370z crowd. Also there was some sarcasim and rice joking going on as well. If you don't find it funny skip it. I would consider the carbon datsun z style badge if they came out with like a new G-nose concept front end kit.

The first thing I'm going to do when I get the car is de-badge it. I don't like any badging or emblems on a car. A car looks smoother and better some how without the all that stuff on it, plus you can properly polish the paint as well. Trying to polish out marring from black paint with all that badging is impossible, you just can't get that close or in between. I also can't recall receiving payment from Nissan for the advertising . Anyway, I can't remove the front and rear emblems as they are inset, and I don't want any body work performed, so I think these are a good alternative.

Just the readily available 350 matte look emblems. I think it's an OEM 350 emblem in the center..

The 370 has slightly different sized or shaped emblems from front to back for proper fit. Are those the same?

These are the same size and fit the front recess. They do not fit the rear, but with careful application will fit OVER the recess. This is a temp solution until properly sized rears are available, but actually it looks just fine in person..
