When there's a TLX in that spot be sure to take lots of pics!

BTW that is the same license plate number on the Honda test Accords at the auto show. They are all the same. Didn't realize that was legal.

Same here. I didn't notice it initially so I did a double take on all the pictures posted here and didn't see anything odd. Fab on the picture you think it's most evident circle the area so we can have a closer look.

^^ I agree with others. I was afraid to post and come to the conclusion that I had cataracs and was the only one missing the poor fits and finish....*lol* So either we ALL have cataracs or we all missing it

Red face Alignment

The only thing I could see is that the bottom line of the red part does not seem to line up perfectly in this pic when the trunk is shut:

Ditto that. Maybe the shadows are giving a perception of a gap in the fit.

Do you mean the bad alignment in the area of circle one or two?


I don't like how the the area in circle two doesn't come further down to the bumper.

One thing I learned from my M37 is if the bottom comes too close to the trunk it may scuff the bumper when you slam the trunk. On my M37 they had to keep aligning the truck to stop it from rubbing when closed and eventually put clear bra strips along the edges that were so close, seems Infiniti felt it was easier to add the auto truck sincher to the 13 cars rather than redesign the trunk lip it seems.

I think the circled item is just perspective. The camera is an a low angle, if you were standing next to it i think it lines ups. The larger gap at the bottom of the lid is by design. Looks fine to me.
