G35 Engine bay covers question!

hey guys,

I have a quick question. I just bought a used 2003 g35 coupe and i popped the hood and i noticed that on the top left side theres a cover but the top right there isnt. i was just wondering if thats how its supposed to be, or is it supposed to come with both sides covered. I searched for engine bay pics and i notcied that some people have it and some people don't.

thanks~!

The right side cover is not standard equipment. It's a JDM battery cover that people put on afterwards.

An inexpensive aftermarket piece that adds some class under the hood.
Sold at many places like EverythingG35 , Grubbs Infiniti etc etc.

Yeah, but it says battery on the cover - little lame? And you cannot get to one of the reservoirs.

It says Battery on that b/c it's from Japan (JDM) and their V35's, which are G35's here, are right hand drive. So their battery is on that side.

I think it balances out how it looks. Wish Nissan/Infiniti had thought of that during those production years.
The new 2007 sedan has both sides covered. Now they're thinking.
