GMballistic Posted November 8, 2014 Posted November 8, 2014 Ok so I'm still waiting for a few people to get back to me but have had no luck yet finding one of these.

Shades Rs Posted November 8, 2014 Posted November 8, 2014 GMballistic if they are the same size as the front bumper or rear tailgate badge I will send you one of mine, unfortunately my engine cover has been sold.

Booo, The front badge is 11cm across, the rear is 10.5cm across & the engine cover badge is the smallest at 6.5cm across. Happy to link members to your breaking advert anytime as it helps them out and you so it's win>win. 1 Quote
Ceejay29 Posted November 9, 2014 Posted November 9, 2014 I need one of these too as there are a few scratches on mine. Thought they would be easy to pick up; guessing that they aren't! Quote

Nope. I'm waiting to see if a few people I've enquired with get back to me. Clark Motorsport being one of them so if I hear anything I'll post in here or let you know via PM Chris. I did search the net and found a US site that sells a replacement engine cover badge in the form of one of those Zed burger style badges but it wasn't cheap & tbh I just want the Nissan one. 1 Quote

Ceejay29 Posted November 10, 2014 Posted November 10, 2014 Nissan must mass produce these and stick them on all engine covers across their range? http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/P12-NISSAN-PRIMERA-DCI-2-2-ENGINE-COVER-YD22DDTI-/171511251347?pt=UK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM&hash=item27eede0193 Quote

There are different sizes to these badges, ....that eBay one might work but you'll never truly know until you either have it in your hands & go to fit it or can get some accurate measurements to compare. Could be worth an email to ask. 1 Quote

Probably right Steve so that's an option although I'm still hopeful I'll find one I won't have to do that or similar to. Quote
GMballistic Posted November 24, 2014 Author Posted November 24, 2014 Just fyi in case anybody in the future is after a Nissan engine cover badge for there Nissan 350Z the "NISSAN" chrome badge fitted to a Nissan Primera 2.2DCi (2002-2008), Nissan Almera 2.2DCi (2002-2008) and the Nissan Tino Diesel engine cover is exactly the same size. The good thing about this is that the engine covers for these vehicles are readily available on eBay and some are very cheap. I bought a Nissan Primera 2.2DCi engine cover for £10 delivered. Unfortunately the chrome badge on the cover I bought was flaking but I have refurbed it & fitted it to my car (will update my build thread soon with pics) so ask the seller before you buy but definitely a cheap, readily available option. Hope that helps. 1 Quote
