Thanks guys for the opinions and advice. The more I look at the pix, the more I realize that badgeless is probably the way to go. And as jlimquest stated, if I DO go with the emblem, then I should remove the license plate frame since it looks a bit too busy once again.

Also, I may consider doing the 350Z and the ings+1 badge on the bumper vs spoiler. I thought it would look WAY out of place, but it doesn't look all that bad. I'll just wait until I get the kit and decide what to do at that point.

 

Any idea where to order the Z Emblems?

 

Where can i get the Z emblem?

 

If you're looking for the bigger brushed aluminum Z emblems, you can get them from either your rear strut bar cover, or the "standard" kick plates (all black plastic with just the aluminum Z emblem).

As for the red Tommy Kaira emblmem, I'm not too sure. The FairladyZ can be purchased from Performance Nissan I believe.

 

Love all the pics, makes me want to buy a ppw roadster to make it look just like the Ings+1 roadster, anyone else feel that way?

 

I have the replica kit minus the wing sitting in my living room now. It's going to take some work but you won't be able to tell it's not authentic when it's on. As far as the wing is concerned, I'll probably end up going with a Blitz wing or something similar when I do eventually get one. The ings lx wing is great, but just not my cup o tea.

I think the wing looks better without a badge. I think the Z looks best with no badges/stickers whatsoever. Just imo.

 

Yeah I've definitely decided I like it.

Yeah, without or big one...

 

Yeah I think that it looks better without the badges. What makes it looks kind of funny is when I open my garage, since it is like on a slope, you see the underside of the car when looking from behind, and for some reason it looks really "cheap". I can't really describe it, but I'll say that once it's on a flat surface and you look from behind, it definately looks better without any emblems. I'm glad I didn't just stick it on while it was in my garage (thank god I'm lazy! )

So for now, I think I'm just leaving it as is. Here's a couple of comparison shots of the badgeless rear on a flat surface vs while in my garage.

So you kinda of want this look? I really like the ings half + blitz combo as well

 

i dont know about the z being on the spoiler...it kind of spoils it (no pun intended) how about above the license plate?

 

Nice! Yeah, I think that's the combo for me. I love how the Blitz wing lays a little more flat than the Ings. Awesome.

 

Yup. You can even argue that it was MADE for th ings half kit, maybe even moreso than the INGS half trunk spoiler. It has clean lines and a similar style crease as the rear bumper valance.

harrieyu: most likely I'm not going to put anything on, but if I do, it will probably be on the bumper portion. I'm going to leave it badgeless for now.
