Looks good
Smoothdome, did you have to do any body work or paint to get it to look that good? I haven't looked closely at mine yet, is it just stuck onto paint?

Silly Question
Ok, so what test fishing line did you use and how long on dryer before you could slide the line?
I only had 4lb test and it kept breaking. I heated emblem for a min or so.

I used 15 lb test that I found in the garage. Since neither the wife or I fish I have no idea where it came from. In fact, because it was just sitting in the garage, I decided to take off the badge.
Anyway, I heated the badge for a couple of minutes. Tried the fishing line. Heated it some more. Tried the fishing line. ETC. I kept breaking the line through the whole process, but eventually, it went all the way through. Total time was maybe 20 minutes.

Did you guys have the Z that long before you took it off? I've had my CS for about 8 months and I'm afraid to see a shadow or some discoloration after I take mine off.
Those pictures look so SWEET!
