Default Great emblems!!

I've been waiting for a nice chrome emblem. The other Z emblems look OK with the aluminum look. But on the Super Black chrome looks awesome.

I agree, I think I might have to order some of those....

My experience with Courtesy has been very good, fast shipping!

The new emblems have just arrived. They look even better in person then the pictures on Courtesy. I've had the aluminum emblem sold by Courtesy, and these new ones, IMO, look a thousand times better.

Yes, It is very simple. Unlike the front, which is easy due to the emblem indent, when placing the rear double check your emblem orientation. It is hard to tell which is the top and which is the bottom, be careful. Also, it is extremely difficult to get the emblem on the rear straight. I would suggest putting tape or something like it in various places around the old emblem, this will give you some reference lines to guide you getting the new one on straight.

I tend to have no patience and always hurry the job. Not only did I put the emblem on unpside down, but it also was not straight. Do not eyeball this install. Both my buddy and myself said "oh yah that it pretty darn straight". Once installed and we stood back to look at it, we both said, "oh yah, that's pretty damn crooked".

I heated it back up, and gingerly pulled it back up, and put it on right and straight. I just hope the adhesive holds after that. It seems to be fine.

I already have 10 "Z"s on my car as well as 9 "nismo"s. Don't think I need any more Z's, especially on the rear since it already says 350 "Z". Just my opinion. The emblems themselves look very nice.

Because of my CS I have to defer to their original Z emblems that have a black background.

I'm going bare ***, but in the front I had to:

a) Get the NISSAN logo out of there (bleech)
b) Conceal the chips already present from the hamburger bun exposed sections with a nice black background Z.

That's it for emblem modification - she's now PERFECT

if you wanted to cover the exposed area in the hamburger, you could have gotten carbon fiber inserts. i got mine from suite e grafx. just another option.
