just so you know... there are two holes underneath the rear nissan emblem. so you would have to have the holes professionally filled and painted or cover it with another emblem.
if anyone who took off the oem badges and they are in good condition... i'm looking to buying a set (for an experiment!!)
pm me if you wanna sell your old emblems

Sorry to hear what happend to your Z. when i got my pathfinder 4 years ago, some punk ripped off the badge and put a big scratch mark on the paint in the process. As for my Z, i took the 350Z emblem off myself after i bought it(fearing the same crap would happend). Although i am thinking of getting a JDM Fairlady Z emblem, the thought of another punk *** kid stealing the emblem is keeping me from doing so.

Finally got all the glue adhisive off... At first i was using soap and water, but that wasnt working.
Luckly my neighbor had some "goof off" and that worked great took it right off no problem...
But the only problem i npticed is a small paitnt chip where the badge used to be. I think the person that did it did this but i donno i could have been me... but i dont think so.
But now i have another prroblem to deal with tht has been there for a while... i think i have some tree sap on my trunk lid, ANY IDEA HOW TO REMOVE IT.
Well heres a pic of the back without the badge glue.

that sucks.
a few punks tried to egg my car...WHILE I WAS DRIVING IT.
luckily it was late at night, and i was able to swerve and have it hit my rim. a little piece bit of it did hit the edge of my wheel well panel. nothing major, but man did it stink by the time i got home. could of had me an egg omelet. nasty stuff.
as for the turds i chased them in their oh so fast ford explorer. they almost rolled over their car because of how fast they were trying to turn. heh. u should of seen the look on the kids face after that happened.

I know this sounds harsh but they should keep to their own business, besides I won't really shoot them, I would threaten them or at least beat them up.

a police ticket and a bill for the damage
the damage total was around $200, but the damage was so tiny that i just pocketed the money.
im sure his parents smacked him around a few times for being such an idiot.

Why exactly would someone steal the badges off of your car? Unless they're hoping that the people whom they stole the badges from were going to buy them back.
I seriously hope that some riceboy doesn't buy them and slap them on his/her ride. Nobody can be that stupid. Then again, I do remember a time when there was a Ford Probe with a Honda VTEC sticker on it so anything's possible.

I'll take off the 350Z badge myself before those riceboys taking it. I know it would add about 50 HP to the 350Z wanabee ricemobile.
sean6tt, are you by the beach area?
