hey arent those cf Z emblems like 80$ each though. Plus Im not sure about the cf if i dont have any other cf stuff on the car. What about a black chrome emblem in either Z or nissan. Would it be possible to have the current emblems rechromed black chrome I wonder?

Yes, $79 from the Z source. They are a perfect match for the side blinkers. In fact I think they are Nissan side blinkers set into CF pieces.

Well I don't have my Z yet, but yes it looks exactly like an OEM blinker. It's shiny plastic with the Z and surrounding ring in a brushed aluminum look. I really like it. I just need a car to put it on

Here is the link to the side flasher that we think is used for the logo.... WAY cheaper than the finished product.....

thats funny...i thought the same thing..i looked up the side marker a few days ago...and i was looking for the carbon fiber insert seperately...it seemed like the z store sold them seperately when they first came out with them...i could have swore i saw them sold seperately somewhere...

Any body shop can shave those emblems for around $600. All they need is a can of bondo and some spray paint. Just do the whole car flat black, get some ryms, and a sweet adjustable rear wing. I own a nissan, not a WTF was that?
