do black chrome emblems exist for the g35's? or maybe the "skyline" emblem in black chrome? in my opinion, it would look nice on dark color cars, especially black

 

I believe a member on this forum 'BKChang79' or something like that does have black chrome emblems on a DG coupe. They do look sweet, just not sure where he had them done and how much $$. I would assume any local paint shop can probably do them for you.

 

i was thinking of doing it myself if i end up getting the "skyline" and "350GT" emblems. it shouldn't be too hard to spray several light coats of black paint on the emblem before putting them on the trunk. i was even thinking of doing it with flat black or a shade that is not exactly the black of the g35's so that it stands out a bit.

does anyone have pics of BKChang79's emblems? i'll try pm'ing him/her.

 

Found pics of his ride on a link from this forum...

I haven't found black chrome "skyline" and "350gt" emblems yet. There are some for Mt. Fugi, Infiniti, and g35 though. I think the letters have to be sent to a powdercoating shop, as just spraypainting them flat black won't give you the black chrome finish. I think am member tried to replicate a black chrome finish but said it did not turn out too well. If you find out any further info please let me know! If not, I am sending some emblems to get powdercoated soon.

 

i know flat black paint won't give it a black chrome effect. its actually for the total opposite effect to make it stand out on a shiny black g

maybe you could try glossy black paint to get the shiney effect. it won't be exactly as black chrome, but for something that small, i wouldn't pay all that money for powdercoating etc.

 

there are two manufacturers of black chrome paint that i've come across. one is http://www.alsacorp.com/, the other http://www.motostorm.com/. i've chatted with the guy from motostorm.com. it's not a painful process, but it *should* be professionally done

 

They have "black pearl" emblems on www.infiniti-parts.com. They are $199. They do not have a sample of them though so i am not sure if it is infact black chrome. From what I have been told, the actual black chrom process is very in depth and expensive so not many places actively do it. If you go to that site, click accessories and G35 coupe, exterior they should pop up.

black pearl exhaust tips.......hmmm

 

I have black chrome emblems on my car. The dealer installed them on for me and charged me a hefty price though. If I could find some black chrome skyline emblems, I would probabally sell the badges I have now.

 

I bought the emblems from www.infiniti-parts.com. Not cheap for basically plastic, but worth it if you want to personalize your car. Here's a closeup shot where I had the black chrome emblems sitting on top of the originals before I put them on so you can see the color difference. The front emblem actually matches the grill better.

 

Looks good! I was looking for the Skyline and 350gt in black chrome though, which from the looks of it I'll have to find paint that will come close to matching what I want and do it myself. Thanks for the websites, I'm checking on that paint now....

 

If you send your emblems to www.brushplate.com, I'm sure they can black chrome any emblem.

 

i don't think brushplate will do it anymore, i called them about it last year

 

$199 is sick I'm going to call my dealer to see what they can do, they have been a realy big help.. I got my 05 Splash Guards, Spolier on order with them should be here, in about 4 days.... $405.00
