ThankZ for the update, interesting that you put the front logo like mine. I was actually considering taking it off and making it more like the blue nismo car from the nismo photoshoot. Your car looks sweet.
Anyways off topic, I'm lovin' the new avatar mc350z.
BTW: Do you have a 2003-2005 with 2006 lights, or a 2006 with a 2003-2005 bumper(w/ nismo lip)? I'm considering buying the old bumper if Nismo doesn't update the lip for the 2006.

thanks
i have a 2003 with 2006 head/taillights and the genuine JDM nismo kit
yeah i put the hood decal in three different positions today and really looked at it hard. i finally decided to go with it like in the pic, about 1 inch away from the body line and low to the edge of the hood. its a 4" by .5" decal so putting it up higher and more to the left made it look likr it was "floating by itself on the hood.
oh and yeah thats my helmet customized with this nismo sticker set i got from japan. the stripes at the bottom are the same as my nismo graphics.
i ended up doing it more like this than all the way at the edge

Yes I did, or should I say the dealer did. I had them redo all of the stickers. The measurements are as posted in this thread, but I can update with some pictures later. I think they look tastefull and sweet.
If I had a chance to do them again, I would do them with the new "Nismo" stickers which spell the word "nismo" instead of the ones I have right now which are the old "rising sun" logo (the 'o' is not an actual 'o').

I cannot beleive you people are arguing over fractions of an inch.
To the author of this thread. Just have the side logos moved up where they should be. The front and rear look just fine. As for the rest of you perfectionists, seek help.
Its just a sticker.

i got a decal set from japanparts.com they are roughly 4" long.
i think the hood stickers nismo sends with the graphics kit are 6 or 7"(i cant remember which). for me that was a little too big on the hood so i used an extra 4" logo left over form the wheels.
you can get ome similar to them here. they are slightly smaller but will look fine on LMgt's

MC350Z, how well did the front bumper go on your 06?
Reason is, I will be ordering it from Japan Parts to fit on my 06 ZR. I am still debating whether to put the Nismo spoiler on.

i have a 2003 Z with 2006 headlights.
the bumper will fit , the only difference is the fender liners on the 2006's are a little wider. you might need to replace those aswell

What about the long nismo stripes on the side and the hood? do you guys recommend professional install at nissan dealer or can i get it done at a local body shop I trust? My worry is that if i take it to Nissan they can give me warranty just incase they mess up and I don't think body shops will rebuy and redo the decals if they mess up...but I'm sure Nissan dealers will cost ALOT more than a local shop. What do you guys think?
