I think your car is a Maxima, not a Z. The placement and color looks good, though.

I figure the 'gt-r' emblems got away, but it's got the heart of a z.........

i think you should keep the Z sticker, get a gt-r badge and get a silvia badge and get giant nismo sticker and anything else that is nissan but not maxima, probably like turbo stickers and 3.5SE on the back. yeah thats the ticket

looks like a deer bullseye target to me. I bet to bucks would be standing beside the road going.

"hey man, I'll give you one of my does if you can put one of your horns straight through that small shining circle in the front."

You could pull it off with a little work. Dull it with a shot of gunmetal paint and flush it with the grille. I like my car to be as subtle as possible, though. I would leave it off.

I went out and looked at it this morning. Was like 'dam that more poserish then the winged nissan emblem. Which would probubly look better as well as make sense. I'll just keep it all shaved.

Or perhaps you could find the Z emblem that just has the Z from your current one, without the circle background. Just the Z itself written that way. And have it a bit larger. I think it would look kinda cool.

I normally would agree with alot of the people here that its not a Z, so dont put it etc. But I like what you said about it being Z inspired. You and shavedmax are like the most customazable 3rd genners on here, eh?

i would probably put a small, darker red "maxima" sign in the lower corner of the grill. That might look pretty good

i would take it off as well. if you put an L series engine in there for some reason you might be able to pull it off. but for what its worth i think it looks good. i just dont think the z can be applied to a maxima
