I've seen another member do it in black while filling in the letters in red. It looked pretty good on his black Z.

Mine...
Ps, friend of mine professionaly painted it and put a clear coat as well.
Pss, the rear emblem is the same as the front one (slightly bigger the the original rear emblem) imo looks better.

I was thinking about debadging the rear and getting a fairlady badge, then blacking that out.. center it to cover the holes. I would also black out the normal hamburger on the front bumper.. the rear would probably look pretty original

Has anyone painted their hamburger emblem to match the satin silver finish of the 350Z/FairladyZ emblem? I'd like to get rid of the chrome....similar to the flat black (but a flat silver).
