A Couple of Camera Phone Shots of the G

I just washed it and snapped a few pictures. I hadn't taken any in a long time.

How do you drive with those steering wheel covers? Everytime I drive someone else's car with one they slide all over the place and I go apeshit.

I loved my steering wheel cover. Made the wheel significantly thicker, and it didn't slide around at all. A pain to put on, though.

Car still looks brand-new!

It does move, but not much. You just have to grip it. To me that beats grabbing the steering wheel without the cover. There is just not enough to hold on to. The cover makes for a more sporty feel (at least for me).

I'll be honest, when the 37 came out, I wasn't as impressed as I was when the 35 came out...but now I don't even know why I thought that. Infiniti nailed it with sporty/classy on the G37. Those are some of the best looking OEM wheels I've ever seen.

Looks awesome, man.

I was the same way. The G35 Coupe was (is) a good looking car. I especially did not like the chrome trunk accent on the G37 Coupe. It seemed to work on the sedan. It has grown on me.

I agree with the wheels. No way will I get aftermarket wheels.

The garage. Don't be jealous. I'm anal. It's borderline OCD.

Nice car, really had my heart set on buying one, but the home remodeling budget ran a little high and now we have some debt to pay off. Chrome stip on rear looks good IMHO, but mostly because it is silver. If the car was black it would look cheap.

I'm always shocked to see how clean other peoples garages are. Apparently I have WAY too much crap in mine.

The G coupe is such a timeless design. It looks great! Love how clean your garage is, too!

I design steering wheel covers for my company. I was never personally a fan until I put one on my MS6. Since that day it's only come off once just to remind myself what the stock steering wheel feels like and it felt incredible weird since I got used to the thicker, plusher cover. Regardless of my job I'll always have a steering wheel cover on my cars to protect the wheel from sun damage and the more comfortable feel.

Knight Rider, if you're interested in a different steering wheel cover that won't slip around on you, let me know via PM, I can hook you up. Ours don't slip at all. Here's what mine looks like...

I really don't consider the G a sports car. Sports coupe? Yes. The Z on the other hand, now that's a sports car.

BTW, when I want to shift manually I ride my motorcycle

I got the steering wheel cover today, and all I have to say is THANK YOU!! No more slipping! The Bell cover is identical, in appearance, as my old one, but it fits much better. Thank you for possibly preventing an accident caused by a slipping steering wheel cover!

The great thing about both your covers is that it's hard to tell there's even one on.

Less is more when it comes to wheel covers.

Do it. Much better feel than the bare wheel (imo). The Bell one fits well.

Awesome man!!! So glad to hear it worked out for you and it fits the way a steering wheel cover should fit. It's definitely not a safe thing if its slipping around on you. Ours are super snug for a good reason.
