Can someone with a Q70 take these measurements for me? I think I am going to get some 5.6's for my fender and want to put the as close to the stock location as possible.

Yes I would be interested to know as well on the placement. Debonair have you already ordered the emblems?

No, not yet. They may come with instructions and/or a template to place them but I doubt it.

Scratch the template idea. I asked an eBay seller (Infiniti dealer) and got this response: "Sorry these do not come with instructions or a template. They come with the blue foam outline to be able to level the emblem where you would like it."

I've shopped around and called some dealerships and I was getting about $75/ea for the fender emblems. I just found these on ebay from the QX80, pretty sure these are very similar or if not the same as the Q70 badging. Under $37/ea shipped to your door.

Figured I would type out these measurements in case the pictures go away. 2.5 years later and I finally ordered some 5.6 emblems. :chuckle:

  • Door side edge of displacement emblem is 3 5/8" from the door side edge of fender
  • Bottom of displacement emblem is 13 1/8" from bottom of the fender where it meets the rocker
  • Top of displacement emblem is 14~" from bottom of the fender where it meets the rocker

Just a tip for applying emblems that has worked for me.

Before removing the backing on your emblems, which exposes the adhesive- I dry fit the emblems with blue painters tape.

I “hang” the emblems in place, by applying a small piece of tape on the front of the emblem with the excess tape above the emblem which attaches to the vehicle- so the emblem is hanging in place.

Once you’re happy with the position of the emblem, simply flip the emblem up and remove the backing to expose the adhesive, and flip the emblem back down. Now your emblem is applied, then remove the blue tape.

Hope this makes sense & sorry for not having in any pics to post.
By doing this you can check for fitment, level etc. before you’ve committed to applying the emblem.

Good technique, same used for flat decals. I have a decal cutter and this is by far the best way to get them down straight and level.

I wanted to thank you guys and this forum for keeping older threads available.
I have a 2013 Infiniti M56 I am keeping around because big, powerful V8s are now rare in 2025.

I bought the 5.6 badges to affix them to my '13 M56 because I believe not having them was an omission from Infiniti.
I blacked them (HyperDip) and am installing them today (October 4, 2025.
Thanks again!
