thx for the kind words from some. but any thoughts are always welcomed. i think that the Z already screams porsche in some ways (yes that emblem was from a prosche, i got it from the dealership for i think... $39.XX) anyway a few people told me to tint it a little darker with touchup paint. i dont know wha im going to do yet (it seems to look better in person). but oh well thanks guys. And no there is nothing on the front of my car.

You should use the Supra's Turbo lettering. More JDM-like

IMO, It would look better if you went to a graphics shop and custom made your own Turbo moniker in 350Z font.

As a former P-car owner, all I think of is Porsche when I see that. They have been using that font for 50 years+.

Personaly if I had turbo I wouldn't make note of it on the car. I'd let people find out on the road.

I like the shaved emblem look

I do agree that it would be better if it was an orig. "turbo" emblem that wouldn't be identified w/ Porsche but it doesn't bother me too much. I wouldn't do it, but I won't condemn it either.
