You don't like projectors? i am not talking about aftermarket.

05+ G35C comes with projector headlight with HID. The visibility is sooooo much better than the ones from 03-04.

The grille i am talking about is very similar to what you had on your TL.

Looks great. I like that model G. I'm not a 2 door car guy anymore but the G always made me reconsider.

Looking very good. ... and I like the OEM hood better and I don't think the trunk looks out of place without the CF hood. Trunk looks great even by itself. Wheels are perfect!

I liked the old hood. What about getting the hood painted and just leaving the vent slats CF. I think that would look really good.
