how to replace keys cheaply

Help me out brothers. I bought a used 2003 G35 and love it. The problem is that I only got on key. To get two extra keys from the dealer will be in excess of $300 b/c the chip theft prevention system. Has anyone had success w/ getting replacement keys from non-dealer sources that have worked? How about in the Chicago area?

I got keys for a Ford with a chip from a local locksmith. They cost about $45 each. Give it a try.

I picked up an iLko key from ebay, and I called about 15 locksmiths in ATL for the cost of programming the key (SDD programmer), the cheapest I was quoted was $145, and 1 guy even said $300 (I don't know what he was smokin). Any1 knows a locksmith in ATL that can help? (I posted on frenzy 2 but no luck)

Well I bought my car from a BMW dealership in my town, no Infinity dealer. The car didn't come with a spare key so they just ordered me one. I didn't have to pay for that but I guess I'll have to go to Nissan to get it cut. I still haven't done that so I'm not sure how much they will charge me.
