I'm thinking $540 including shipping and paypal. I would like to get about $500 out of it and should cover the additional expenses.

Yep...what Aaron said. Steering wheel off, remove the horn springs (held in with two screws), then remove the back cover (held on with 3 screws) then you can access the screws holding in the switches from the backside. From there you have to pop off the covers that go around the switches (the ones I CF wrapped). It's easy to remove.

What was wrong with your old emblemless?
I sold that one months back. Randy has the craftsmanship on this mod down pat. Mine wasn't anywhere near as good as what Randy can create. I knew he did good work but once I saw it in person, well worth the money and then some.

Yeah, this was my friends. With the addition of the CF wrap, I just wanted to change it up and add a little more black/contrast inside.

Did you make any adjustments on the height of the seat? Seems like the coupe seats sit a lil lower to me.
I went emblemless a while back...then sold it cause I knew I would end up wanting one made by RRYDE (Randy).

To my suprise, the seats sit perfect. I did not have to adjust the height on them at all. I had read somewhere before that the passenger side sat a good amount lower but I didn't have to do any adjustment at all. Maybe its an 03 thing?

BTW, shifter looks so much better without the *******
I thought you'd like the circumcision Mike

No...it was easier than I thought it would be. I posted up what I did in this thread.

I had never really checked out the SFR until now...manifold looks nuts!

So I go to their website and check it out and guess what I see o.....a photo of mine I did not give them permission to use! If they had asked I would have let them no prob, but since they jacked it from me, I'm going to ask them to remove it.

you guys need to stop about the coupe seats... I haven't given them much consideration - but the more you go on about it.... I'm contemplating another stoopid move - to buy coupe seats so I can enjoy the experience (while it sits in the garage )

I have a site right now that's using some of mine without permission. I need to send them a letter, but I've been too busy with work, the wreck, and taxes.

^LOL. No, not me. Really! It's a guy in the car club. He wants to do a VQ swap on his Z31.
The guy with the Z33 would buy it for sure.... except he already has one.
I would consider it myself, but I have way too many other things that are more important demanding money right now.
