280zx signs

When i first got my z it had a 280zx sign on the back where the license plate goes and my plate was under my rear bumber. the sign wasnt in "cursive" like the turbo it was just normal bold larger font print. i cant find anything on it. wondering if anyone knows anything about it.

I had one but, it got chucked because it fell apart... I could never find a decent replacement for it.

If it is the center panel like the eBay ad, the ones without the "turbo" are harder to find.

I've had a couple turbo panels and took them both off. I dont' like the look of them installed.

Is it just a plastic license plate that someone wrote "280ZX" on?

I have a display license plate that says "280ZXR" on it. It was probably made by a dealer to put on their 280ZXR when it was new.



Please do post a picture of what you have.

It has already been established that the light up center panel is not what he is talking about.

He posted a link to the eBay auction with a picture. You said it was quite a bit different then that!

Is it at all like the one my car had but I took off?

it is in the same place but not matching with the tail lights. it was just a solid red piece wth no split and letters were not protruding they were flush with it. but i guess it is similar. sorry i thought that was a tail light. but it has no lines or anthing just 280zx in black letters, like in the center of the piece.

There was a 280ZX at nationals that had something like this... Red center piece with a 280ZX in it. I think I may have it in my photobucket, but Websense says I can look at my pictures at work.

all i can advise is to watch ebay and craigslist for one... you could also post on several Z car forums "parts wanted" sections for one, use my pic if you want
