Danny350z Posted September 12, 2007 Posted September 12, 2007 Some scrote of society has prised the '3' from the rear of my car. I'm currently the proud owner of a Nissan 50z. They've obviously used a key as well due to the nice 3-4mm long scratch mark that accompanies the missing number. What the hell is wrong with this bloody country? What's the point? What they hell they going to do with it? ****ing idiots. So how much will a new badge cost? As it's Nissan I assume stupid money? Quote
Chesterfield Posted September 12, 2007 Posted September 12, 2007 Ill post these seeing as you haven't: :rant::rant:**&&!!$*** :rant: Absolute mindless idiots. They would find them in the park behind our house doubling as a bike rack!! As for the badge, there may be some that have debadged that have no use for theirs anymore? Either that or ebay? Gutted for you - absolute idiots. Quote
Danny350z Posted September 12, 2007 Author Posted September 12, 2007 Nothing on Ebay. Mum works at a stealership, she's going to find out how much a new one is Quote
M13KYF Posted September 12, 2007 Posted September 12, 2007 chris at JDM performance has them http://www.jdmperformance.co.uk/ sorry to hear the news. Quote
Danny350z Posted September 12, 2007 Author Posted September 12, 2007 Crap, just remember the old dear is off work for two weeks, guess I'll have to do it myself. It's a pity these little twats aren't caught in the act, although probably for the best as I'd kick the life out of them. Quote
Danny350z Posted September 12, 2007 Author Posted September 12, 2007 THIRTY ****ing QUID!?!?!?!?! Jesus H Christ... thirty quid... for a little badge!?! Quote
lomoto Posted September 12, 2007 Posted September 12, 2007 THIRTY ****ing QUID!?!?!?!?! Jesus H Christ... thirty quid... for a little badge!?! totally debadge it like a few have done on here , Cheaper option Quote
Danny350z Posted September 12, 2007 Author Posted September 12, 2007 THIRTY ****ing QUID!?!?!?!?! Jesus H Christ... thirty quid... for a little badge!?! totally debadge it like a few have done on here , Cheaper option I'm considering it. I can't help but feel the badges are priced at what they are because they're an easily nickable item and manufacturers (or whoever sets the price of them) know people will want to replace them. Let's face it, they probably cost about 20pence to make and it certainly can't be argued they're value for money. Of course, now I wonder if some other owner has had their '3' nicked and seeing the cost of a replacement badge decided to just go rip one off someone elses Zed. Quote
M13KYF Posted September 12, 2007 Posted September 12, 2007 THIRTY ****ing QUID!?!?!?!?! Jesus H Christ... thirty quid... for a little badge!?! think it's a bit more from Nissan Quote
rmmackfc Posted September 12, 2007 Posted September 12, 2007 If you fancy a laugh, go to the Honda website and spec up a new Type-R. £150 add-on for Type-R badges and decals Quote
Sarnie Posted September 12, 2007 Posted September 12, 2007 THIRTY ****ing QUID!?!?!?!?! Jesus H Christ... thirty quid... for a little badge!?! totally debadge it like a few have done on here , Cheaper option +1: Quote

max Posted September 12, 2007 Posted September 12, 2007 Just read my local paper and some toe rag has scrolled his name into 86 cars over the last 2 nights value around £100,000, kids no 28 year old bloke. max. Quote
Sarnie Posted September 12, 2007 Posted September 12, 2007 Very Agreed They were on the car 8 weeks before i sold up Quote
Andy Posted September 13, 2007 Posted September 13, 2007 I hate mindless vandalism like that! I may still hav my badges somewhere, i'll see if I can find them but after a recent housemove it may be a long shot! Quote
nixy Posted September 13, 2007 Posted September 13, 2007 Oh FFS why don't these idiots go and play on the motorway! Someone once nicked the GTI badges off my golf - would love to know what they do with them! Quote
DiggZ Posted October 3, 2007 Posted October 3, 2007 Sorry to hear that, some little scrote has just done the same to mine at the weekend. I am now missing my "Z" from my 350z logo on the boot. As if the pleasure of paying for a new one wasnt enough, I also have a nice scratch where they prised it off. The missus car also had her BMW badge nicked. Really wish I could have caught them doing it, grr Anyone have a spare "Z" they want to sell? Quote
Zedrush Posted October 3, 2007 Posted October 3, 2007 sorry to hear that mate, my brothers is getting debadge if he does not want the badge you can have it ill send it to you, save yourself 30 quid Quote
SunsetZ Posted October 3, 2007 Posted October 3, 2007 I've got a spare 350 badge which hasn't been used. Bought it for the "Z" bit. The 350 bit is still brand new if you want it. Still got the adhesive backing ready to stick straight on. PM me if your interested. Bruce. Quote
H5 Posted October 4, 2007 Posted October 4, 2007 Sorry to hear it. Badges do seem to be expensive, I paid £35 each for the 'R' badges on my last car, and had to provide chassis number of two real 'R's' before Volvo would send them..... De badging could be the way to go Quote
Dan Posted October 4, 2007 Posted October 4, 2007 As it's Nissan I assume stupid money? Sorry to hear that mate, wouldn't you just love to catch them at it. Have to agree about Nissan prices. I'm an independent Nissan specialist so obviously we buy lots of parts off Nissan. Last week we sold a Terrano which needed a new throttle pedal...fly by wire of course, couldn't just want a cable, oh no, that would be far too easy LOL Turned into £750 worth of a job to get the car sorted, and thats at cost to me !!!

martinmac Posted October 4, 2007 Posted October 4, 2007 Caught a kid trying to pen knife off my badge a couple of months ago, debadged now. Quote
