Don't EVER take your car to the dealer for install work. That is insane. I would DIY before those guys.

My options are limited around here though. I don't want "Bubba's Auto shop and fish bait" working on my G37...

True, but aren't there any other G owners that have recommended shops within your area?

The nest thing you should do is get some of those 4 piston front and dual piston rear calipers that come on the sport model.. I'm sure you can find a set at the junk yard!!

Finally was able to get my JL Audio W7 transferred from my Acura to the G. I think it came out great the bass knob location is perfect.

Best part is NO rattles at all. For the power this sub puts out, I am very surprised and pleased. Sounds so crisp and tight inside the car. No dimming of lights either.

Not much of a fan of aftermarket stereos these days but that looks very pro. Great job!

The new taillights look aggressive. As for the headlights did you lose or gain over the oem headlights in terms of lighting performance?

I didn't lose or gain anything. The overlay is not over the headlights, high beams, or fogs. It's over the amber and around the headlights.

I think they look great. I am going to be polishing them so they look more shiny like the headlights.

Looks much cleaner now

I might be in the minority but I like those rims better than the 19's.

3rd brake light doesn't work?

I debadged my trunk and kept the Mt Fuji badge on. It was too busy with 3 different fonts for so little letters.

Still debating on whether or not to cover up the chrome spoiler with a similar spoiler ...

I'm not applying the brake.
Debadge is definately cleaner. What spoiler would you be looking at? There aren't many out there and if you go OEM, you have to remove the chrome piece. Mine is just chillin underneath my new spoiler and saved a lot of $ going this route.

I like the "no spoiler look" better, but that's just my

Progress is coming along nicely! I'm looking forward to seeing what else you have in store for it

Been a while since I last modded. Thought she needed some security and a little warming up. Notice the difference in the flashing lights.
