ms8qt Posted June 12, 2007 Posted June 12, 2007 Hi all, Do any of you know where I can get 'Z' badges to replace the standard front & rear Nissan badges? I saw someone sell a 350z on Pistonheads and he had done this - however, I can't find them anywhere. Any info would be great - thanks in advance! Mark (ms8qt) Quote

ms8qt Posted June 12, 2007 Author Posted June 12, 2007 Excellent - thanks. Maybe I'm pushing my luck but I don't suppose there's a place I can get these in the UK? If not, do you know if they will post to the UK? Cheers! M. Quote
MarkW Posted June 12, 2007 Posted June 12, 2007 My 'Z' badges have gone manky and have only had them less than 12 months - not very impressed. The silver is wearing off, exposing the plastic underneath. Been meaning to post a thread with some pics but not got round to it..... Quote

Pretty cheap with exchange rates as they are and no problem posting out to the UK. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/JDM-350Z ... enameZWDVW Quote

Part of a group buy on here last year - funkystyling I think. Wonder if they come with any sort of guarantee?? Quote

As a forum member I would hope that Chris at Funkystyling would want to do something for you here. Seems like a good bloke so a PM should be in order. Let us know how you get on. Quote

ms8qt Posted June 12, 2007 Author Posted June 12, 2007 Thanks for all the replies everyone - what an active forum I've looked at Funky Styling's website and at £30 each they seem quite expensive, compared to the US website (CourtesyParts) and eBay US. Are these items identical or are some better quality than others - the last thing I want is for my recently purchased zed (GT4 Kuro Black) to look 'tacky' ;-) Thanks! Mark. Quote
MarkW Posted June 12, 2007 Posted June 12, 2007 Mines a Kuro GT4 and I bought these as I thought they went well with the car... Quote
M13KYF Posted June 12, 2007 Posted June 12, 2007 identcial but remember you would have to pay import duty and tax on top of the US prices. Works out to be pretty much the same in the end but you'll get them quicker from chris @ funkystyling Quote
elrao Posted June 12, 2007 Posted June 12, 2007 Have seen some gold badges which would look good on a Kuro - but think they were gold nissan badges, not gold Zs My car had Zs on it when I bought it! (Thanks Dorian!) Quote
Sarnie Posted June 12, 2007 Posted June 12, 2007 identcial but remember you would have to pay import duty and tax on top of the US prices. Works out to be pretty much the same in the end but you'll get them quicker from chris @ funkystyling Personally I've never paid a penny on anything I've bought from the US Quote

holtehero Posted June 12, 2007 Posted June 12, 2007 I'm going to go for some black pearl Z badges, just need to ask Bigphil as i believe he was getting a stock of Z badges, these are the badges i like http://www.courtesyparts.com/Merchant2/ ... 33EM-CHRBK Also, tempted to put carbon fiber inserts with the badges as well as i think that would look quite nice on a Kuro GT4 Quote
