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.

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.
