mpkayeuk Posted January 7, 2011 Share Posted January 7, 2011 Do any Black Edition owners have a close-up photo of the 40th Anniversary logo on either the hatch or front brace? I want to see if I can trace it and turn it into a vector suitable for engraving on an aluminium tax disk holder. There are plenty of photos of the leather seats on t'interweb but it's not so easy to trace from there. Would very much appreciate it and maybe once I've done the design we could do a group buy if there's enough interest. They will probably be about £15 - £20 each from what I can gather.

mpkayeuk Posted January 7, 2011 Author Share Posted January 7, 2011 Sort of Geoff, but I need it straight on and not at an angle Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
geoff-r Posted January 7, 2011 Share Posted January 7, 2011 I will try and swing by my garage on the way home and snap you a straight on pic mate if someone hasn't come forward before then Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mpkayeuk Posted January 7, 2011 Author Share Posted January 7, 2011 That would be awesome Ideally I'd like something from a brochure, like black and white in print... but that's wishful thinking. My Google skills have failed me in that regard. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mpkayeuk Posted January 7, 2011 Author Share Posted January 7, 2011 This is what I have so far after about 20 mins of work: Let me know if you think I'm on the right lines Bit of refining to do and obviously the anniversary bit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mpkayeuk Posted January 8, 2011 Author Share Posted January 8, 2011 Finished the 40th bit, now need a Z for final design. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mpkayeuk Posted January 8, 2011 Author Share Posted January 8, 2011 Okay, here's a rough idea of what it should look like. I'll get one made up and take some pics Would anyone be interested? If so I don't mind donating the artwork so you can get your own made or maybe a group buy. Cheers, M Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chippy Posted January 8, 2011 Share Posted January 8, 2011 I'd be up for a square one We don't have road tax here, but we do have stupid 3" square insurance discs that we have to display. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mpkayeuk Posted January 8, 2011 Author Share Posted January 8, 2011 Chippy, wouldn't know where to get a Jersey insurance plate made up, but you're welcome to the artwork if you like. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bakseedaa Posted January 9, 2011 Share Posted January 9, 2011 Looks good mpkayeuk, id be up for one cheers. Where would you get one made up? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mpkayeuk Posted January 10, 2011 Author Share Posted January 10, 2011 I'm getting mine made up by http://www.laser-grave.co.uk/ to see what it looks like. The blank is a titanium colour anodised Richbrook Twist-off holder which is £20 with the custom logo. The blanks are £18 from Halfords, so not a bad price really. As soon as it arrives I'll take pics. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oxfordlad Posted January 11, 2011 Share Posted January 11, 2011 I'll be interested in one of these tax disc holders... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
geoff-r Posted January 11, 2011 Share Posted January 11, 2011 Get one made up mate, I might be interested Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mpkayeuk Posted January 12, 2011 Author Share Posted January 12, 2011 It's arrived. This is in titanium silver, which is a dark silver (although in reality it isn't that dark). I might get a black one made up now to see what that looks like. Sorry about the blurrage, I focused on the 40th Anniversary bit Anyway, the engraving is excellent: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
113z Posted January 12, 2011 Share Posted January 12, 2011 can i have one if you do a group buy looks great Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
geoff-r Posted January 12, 2011 Share Posted January 12, 2011 That does look very good mate it'll be really nice to see one in black as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mpkayeuk Posted January 12, 2011 Author Share Posted January 12, 2011 Just this second ordered a black one with some minor changes to the spacing (slightly wider) between the Z and 40th Anniversary bits Should be here next week judging by the last order. I'm sure someone here will take one of them off my hands. I'll ask them about a group buy discount as well If there's no joy I'm quite happy to give you guys the artwork in the format they need it for engraving and you can buy your own.

bakseedaa Posted January 13, 2011 Share Posted January 13, 2011 That looks good and i think will look even better in black i will definitely get one Well done good work Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mpkayeuk Posted January 14, 2011 Author Share Posted January 14, 2011 Okay guys, the group buy prices are here. If we can get 10+ orders, then for £15 they will engrave the Z 40th Anniversary logo and also a username/reg number if you like. If you're not bothered about the username/reg plate then the price is £14. There is a further discount of £1 for 20+ orders. They are genuine Richbrook aluminium twist off holders, as sold by Halfords blank for £18. They don't come in retail packaging, just a protective foam sleeve in a jiffy type envelope. They also come with fitting instructions and 6 clear adhesive pads for affixing to the windscreen. How do we get the message out to all 40th/Black owners? Colours are: Black (bestseller) Titanium (bestseller) Silver Blue Pink P.S. Still waiting on the black one, but will take pics when it arrives.

Chris`I Posted January 14, 2011 Share Posted January 14, 2011 Start a GB thread seperately and it will get more visibility. Also if you want the 370z-uk.net logo in EPS format just let me know, then you can have the club logo on there too possibly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ebized Posted January 15, 2011 Share Posted January 15, 2011 ......err, as a humble non black edition 370 owner, if there was the option to have it engraved with the big Z and "www.370z-uk.net" underneath instead of "40th Anniversary", I would have one If that helps price-wise by widening the offer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
