so i bought a skyline badge on ebay and when it arrived, i noticed it wasnt set perfectly straight to just place on to trunk lid. instead ive got to figure out what size spacing between lettering and best way to do is. Ive got several methods but open to suggestions. dont forget, i need to know the letter distance between each. is it the same as infniti? BTW I got it JDM from riverside WTF?

 

the foam that it comes in is a template

 

my whole point was that it is not. matter of fact its pretty obvious.

 

it is supposed to curve up a bit on the ends i think

 

well mine was, put it on the trunk stick the letters in the wholes. maybe you got ripped off, because when it sordered from the dealer it somed with the foam template. they put it to the trunk and stick the letters in the wholes. they are already spaced

 

Lay it out on 2" blue tape first, that's where you measure and center to get it
just right. You could even use 1" blue tape between the letters to get the
spacing correct. Now that all the letters are spaced correctly tape your set up below where you intend to place the letters, make sure it's level....now
move your letters up on the trunklid. Get the idea?

thats actually one method i was debating on but i think the original has a slight up curve as does the infiniti badge right? is it then 1" spacing for sure? thanks

 

dont put it on at all

 

u have a g35, not a skyline

 

make your car your own, you cant listen to everybody.do you want your g to look like everybody elses

 

bet he doesnt have a nissan either its an infiniti.

some people like to be different, this JDM things its not new its been around for a while so accept it. people in japan have rebadged there skyline 350gt (not to be confised with GT-R) to say infiniti because they dont sell g35's in japan and they want to be different.

if there is a car in another country say peru that has the same engine, chassis code and has the same body lines the only difference would be safety glass and where the stearing wheel is located. and one was sold as a lexus and the other was called a toyota, but for shear marketing the manufacturer changed the name because there was a different target market and they would make more money calling it something else.

so drowe i pose this question. is if you owned the toyota company, and could sell the same car for more money but call it something else would you? or you you chalk up the loss because you not really business minded but more of a nice guy?

 

do what yo uwant to your let him do what he wants to his hell if her want to call it a volvo who cares.

 

listen bro, with 40 fukcing posts to your name, the very least you shouldnt do is post 2 consecutives on this thread that are pointless!

 

can we just get back on subject? damn!

 

whooot whoot. good luck with getting everything straight.

just remember just cause it says nissan cv35 under the hood its not really a nissan, as per drowe303
