I recently ordered a spoiler- was going back and forth on whether to go CF or paint matched and ultimately decided on paint matched.

Also bought OEM all weather mats and a trunk tray within a day or two of the purchase.

Gonna have to get tint put on here soon. It's hot AF here in FL.

Nice start! I'm also taking that to mean you handled the worst of the storm.

Yes sir. We got lucky. Never lost power and only had to deal with down branches. Others in the hood were not so lucky.

dealer tint is sh*tty anyway because of the cheap film they use, I recently got my RL re-tint with Ceramic tint and I can tell a big difference in blocking the heat.

Our dealer services out all their tint jobs.

Of course they try to rack up the price. It's just cheaper to do it after you buy the car.

So I just bought a rear diffuser. Here's a pic of it:



Debating on getting it color matched to the body color or matching the gun metal color of the wheels.

Thoughts?

congrats!! how does the stock exhaust sound, any clips of it? I've always thought infiniti had the absolute best oem sounding exhaust but to be honest i haven't heard any of the newer cars in the last 3-4 years and wonder if they still have that same sweet sound like the old G35/37

For a 400 hp car- the exhaust note is quiet and certainly not anywhere nearly as growly and sweet sounding as the G37. My buddy came over on Sunday and he has a 2013 G37 w/ 6MT and let me tell you- hearing him back into my driveway was like listening to a lion roar vs the house cat like meow my car makes.

Yes, on the diffuser. I say, don't color match it.

My buddy has one on his, but, it's CF.
