I was wondering to whom ever has put them on if they can give me any tips on putting on the skyline, nissan, and 350gt emblems on the back of the coupe.

Tips such as how to get it strait as possible, etc....
Thanks

 

well, for the skyline and 350gt emblems, they come with a template.. that helps u keep the letters straight.. for the 350gt, u should just put it up against the trunk molding that is similar shaped to the template.. for the skyline, i would suggest just looking at where others have put it and basicalli eyeball it.. there's realli no set place to put it.. but i wud suggest asking a friend to be there with you and at a good distance to see if you're puttin it on straight.. hope that helps at all..

 

That's how I did it too...

 

I found that by using hair dryer with hot air to remove the old emblems are very helpful. it only take less a mins to remove it all. hope that help

 

well taking it off is not a problem, the problem i have is I want to make it straight as possible. So eyeballing it i gotta figure something more useful. But thanks for the replys. If anybody else has any other tips please let me know.

Thanks

 

I removed the old ones with dental floss (no hairdyer need). The left over glue can be pulled off with your finger nail. I used a little bit of alcohol to get the rest.Wash the car first. The 350GT emblems are easy. For the Skyline, Before removing the "Infiniti" put a piece of masking tape under the it so you know where to put and line up the "Skyline". Think of the Infiniti sign as Pac Man. You must line him up to eat the "L" in Skyline. So line the "L" up with Pac Man first. Then lay the rest of the letters. Worked for me...See!

Get a small carpenters level and some painters tape. Use the level to put a strip of painters tape straight across your trunk. Then just butt the new letters against tape and they should be level and straight.

Hey Zen thanks for the east tip for puttin on the skyline emblem. How about the 350gt emblem what sthe best way to put that one on?

 

You know how the foam of the "350gt emblem is not a square? The right side is cut at an arc. It is cut to the exact outline of the right side of your rear hatch. Just test lay the emblem (without removing the backing) first, you'll understand.

 

I was checking out the INFINITI emblem,and it has a slight curve to it. Should I make my SKYLINE curve slightly or would it look good if I just made it straight?

 

Curve!!! What! Your car is defective man! Send it back. Just kidding. Leave the "Skyline" in it's template it should go on straight. Oh I forgot... You need to get a ruler and a ball point pen. Since you can not see the masking tape through the blue foam. You need to draw a straight line directly under the "S" and the "E". Draw a straight line to the left of the "S" and to the right of the "E". Both lines should go to the outside edge of the foam. Just line up your line with the top of the masking tape. Basically, what you will get is the outside letters of “SKYLINE” (the S and E) will match with the outside letters of “INFINITI” Did that make sense? Anyways, just dry test it first. I know it’s scary.

 

Hey i put them on, All i got to say is the minute i finished i had to go to school. While i was driving this white man probably in his late 40's rolls next to me in a brand new SL 55 and says. "Is that a Nissan?" I was like yes it is. LOL i was bullsh*tng the guy. I was like i got the car from Japan but had in converted to meet U.S. standrads. THe guy bought it. By far this is the best mod i have done to any car. LOL thanks for the tips guys i guess leave this up for people use. Zen if you wanna make a something to make it step by step let me know. I live in LA more exactly the San Fernando Valley.
