some pics of my FX

Gordon is a photographer that's well known in the Infinti G forums... he drives an 05' G35 himself... we went out today along with another FXer (from the FX forum) and took some pics... Recently, something bad happened to his dog, not sure if he's injured or really sick but required major vet care... so Gordon's been trying to raise money for the bill... his fee's pretty reasonable... Anyone in the Southern California area that want some pics taken please hit him up...

these places we went to shoot were totally random too...

(mine's the Silver FX, my buddy's is black)









...and of the pictures he's sent me so far... this is my favorite, and it isn't even of MY FX

To be honest I never liked FX's at all until I saw yours a while back (not like I was looking for a luxury SUV in the first place) Looks great!! The black one is nice too but those wheels don't look like they'd look right on any car.

Nice pics, Ken.

Might have to bring my G down and have a photo shoot. But I need more than just 'tint' as mods. LOL.

The wheels are ok, but otherwise the Darkwing Duck mobile is the hotness.

Never really gave the FX a second look, but yours (and the black one) look really good. Guess I don't ever see any modded FX's . Gordon does a great job taking pics, too.

Wow beautiful pair of FXs. I've always loved them and these pictures make me love them even more!!!

This one is my favorite of the bunch. Your FX looks like a toy model or something in this shot.

Even after these years, the design on the FX never fails to impress me and I still lower my window for the VQ. And the mods you've added really kicked it up a notch.

Debadge your car! What's up with the S thing by the 45!? haha

My friend has FX35 with the HKS exhaust.. It's frigging loud..

His car has some custom paint job as well. He painted all those plastic parts on the bottom with pearl black(?). He painted all of chrome parts with black. He painted the roof rack with burgandy red. It looks pretty clean.

I'll try to find his car's picture and post it.

In California it's state law that all vehicles are required to have a front plate.

Many do remove it and if ticketed, put it back on, get it checked off and pay the fine. After paying the fine, they usually take the plate off in the courthouse parking lot.


I think states need to be more consistent in some of these laws. Some auto manufacturers have designed cars to not have front plates so when plate is added it looks :ghey:

thanks guys... yeah, I know... I can't stand the front plate... but if I take it off there's to holes on the bumper, the cheap alternative is to buy bumper plugs... and the not-so-cheap alternative is to have a body shop fill it... I've been getting a lot a small nicks and scratches, maybe when I decide have the front bumper repainted I'll take the plate off and fill the holes.
