I like it. I would leave the "Z" off also. I think if you made them a bit smaller, more people would like them.

I'm afraid you're going into the realm of Rice. The criticism i have is that it looks so handmade that it looks weird. The numbers are flat. Yes i agree stickers would've been better.

^I stand by what I said earlier. Smaller would look I better, too, I think.

Maybe you could make CF Nissan burgers? BTW, those look so much better in your second set of pics than it did in your first.

yeah the second attempt is way better then the first especially when put side by side. i thought about a nissan burger attempt, i just dont know if i should or not...

i do agree with a tighter weave now that it was mentioned, i just used what i had left over from my other projects

These dont go with the car at all, just looks out of place. This would look better to decorate an the engine bay if anything, but its your car do as you please

Props for your project, but the result looks really tacky to me.
