Dash cluster

Is it possible to wire a 2011 g37 dash cluster into a 2006 g35 and it fitting seamlessly?

Just solder some new LEDs in if you want a custom look. Making 2011 Infiniti technology work on your old car is a nightmare and requires lots of custom work you can't perform, no offense.

Sure, but you'll need somebody to decode, decipher, translate and inject the CAN-BUS communication between your car and the new cluster. Then you'll need some custom-made cash parts to make it fit seamlessly. The cost of labor and parts for that should be roughly double a 2011 G37's fair market value, and should only take several months to get done.

Fair enough i was just wondering if it was possible, ill just solder new lights in is there a tint film over the instruments on the 2006 or am i able to just take the leds off and solder on new ones and put updated needles on? I'd like to go for blue for the color and white needles

You'll want to check out the lighting subforum - https://g35driver.com/forums/lighting-177/

Great info on recoloring the dash in there.

Check the forum posts about it, but if I Remember correctly, something has tint.
