Default Fairlady Z emblem

Has anyone installed the "Fairlady Z" emblem on their American counterparts? If so, do you guys have pictures to share? Wanna save a few bucks too, so where did you buy yours?

when you purchase the emblems, does it come with information of where the emblem is supposed to locate EXACTLY? i need the emblem to fit right on the correct spot.

yes. It comes with a blue foam surrounding the actual lettering. The blue foam matches directly to the bottom-left corner of the hatch, so you can get it perfect the first time. You'll know what I mean when you get it. Just place the blue foam on where the "350Z" emblem is, and it would match that corner of the hatch.

use floss or fish line and heat the emblem with a haridryer. slide the string under the emblem and slowly remove it. its really easy...

A lot of people say that they fairlady Z emblems on American Z's are ricey, but I personally like them and think they pay homage to the original Z.
