1. Some dude with a G35 PIITB of your girlfriend and she dumped you

This thread has fail of epic proportions.

Looking at the original photo, my opinion is that somebody was way too sloppy applying that stuff, and the process needs better quality control since the end result shows that it's out of control. As a manufacturing/QA engineer I wouldn't accept that even on a $15k car...it doesn't cost more to do a better job than that and I can easily make a case that a properly controlled process would even cost less due to less wasted material, better/optimum coverage, better customer satisfaction.

Basically what I'm saying is that the OP's post has a picture of "gunk", nothing else. His post does not deserve any serious response.

I'll wager that it was done aftermarket, by a dealer and not Infiniti.
To the OP, yeah Infiniti/NNA is reallllly hurting right now.
Go climb a tree. And fall out.

I sure don't accept that.

Its not, but it was likely an aftermarket procedure. There is no way that gets past any mass manufacturer's QA department.
And if you pay for undercoating at a dealer you deserve what you get.

Vbx isn't that bad, is he?? I know OP's thought process regarding this thread was lacking, but it's not like his specialty is posting completely moronic threads everywhere, is it?
