I'd like to see more angles as well; I'm sure that shot exagerates the wing. The car really would look better with the OEM tails; those are just terrible and ruin the lines of the Z.

It is the license plate light and license plate holder that is NOT centered.
It is off to the right a bit to give way to the rear cameras (x2) that I am having installed facing to the rear via the license plate mounting brackets.
...Check the picture again.

I planned on this before because I knew that the CF wing would obstruct my view to the rear.


BTW - Pls. check your spelling of Veilside.

Sorry, but the VS badge is definitely off center. Look at your pic and see where the rear wiper nozzle is and then follow it down. You will notice that the badge is to the left of where the nozzle aims and we know that Nissan didn't f*ck up putting the nozzle in.

i did some photoshop work to see if the emblem is really off

first thing i did was draw a rectanglar bar so i could rotate the image so it was on the level.. as you can see both tail lights are now on a level..

then i made a triangle from the light to the emblem.. then i copied the layer and flipped it horizontally so its the same exact triangle.. and the emblem is indeed off



here is the psd with all the layers if you want to play with it yourself

Mannn ~ whew! ...talk about a pack of wild chihuahua's from the Dog Whisperer show - you guys are quick to judge just from one picture alone - exactly why I only posted one.

Did it ever occur to you all that the origin of the shot is not even dead center - so everything else will not line up to the center - why? - because the shooter was NOT even on the center.

Who says that the pic was supposed to be symmetrical?!!

I was taking a shade from under a tree was when I took this dramatic shot which also dramatically exagerates the wing from this angle - then look at the response - my my ~ tsk tsk tsk.....

You guys stop wasting your time aggaravating yourselves just by one picture alone - imagine if there's more.

Don't be hatin'

FYI, There are already markers pre-defined on the body kit already, some pre-drilled to accomodate the emblems after install and paint. There is only one place to put the embems on both front and back apron.

....So now I will assume that people making the emblem comments don't even have any aftermarket body work on their Z's ???

How boring.........

Badge appears centered to me but the angle of the car is not in line with the lens.
The wing and taillights are hideous.

Ok I definitely checked again and.....

1) You are centered behind the car. Please see your reflection in the pick in which .....
2) You are not in the shade but in direct sunlight unlike you stated
3) Also use other "center points" on the car as reference. Which, by the way all line up.
4) The markers may be on the body kit, but NOT on the hatch where you placed it.

and 5) You can assume I do have custom bodywork b/c all of my badging is centered. Just looks like an amateur did yours.

In conclusion, your rear badge is NOT center but off to the left.

And why do you need 2 rear cameras? one is plenty sufficient.
