Smoking tail lights is cheezy and cheap looking tinting headlights is worse. Leave the tails alone and open the headlights and paint the housings. While youre at that paint the grill black scuff it with purple scotch brite and you are good to go.
well my only concern is that will a painted headlights and black grille look good with silver rims?

Go look at LR cars and tell me lots of cars have black lights and grills and silver is the most common wheel color. I like it you may not.

great looking car bro

You've already got the clear corners up front I see so that's a start. Personally I think a black painted grille with the chrome stock emblem look very good on the laser red coupes (like the pic posted earlier). I really like the style wheels you've already got but that's your own preference if you want to get a different set. Could always upgrade your brakes to get a better look as well as better braking. Mom can't get mad at that and they'll look good with your red painted calipers.

These are my rear so the disc is smaller but you get the idea...


I'd recommend getting a z-tube and JWT popcharger (basically just replace the stock intake) and you'll get a more aggressive sound when you hit the gas.

Good luck with whatever you attempt and keep us posted on your progress.

Also Im not trying to be a douche but u should look through the forums on your OWN to see which parts u want to get. No one here knows what u want ur G to look like. Topics like these appear too much. Thats the problem with the younger generation now. Ask and they expect to receive.
Hell, I asked and got a $2000 Cutlass Supreme at 16. He asked got a $10k+ G35 coupe.

Why WOULDN"T you ask, if you're going to receive?

Who's the one at fault? The asker, or the giver?

Edit: To answer the OP, there are a LOT of things you can do. Browse the threads, take note of other people's cars and then figure out or ask how they achieved their look.

THIS is a good thread about cheap mods for the G35.
https://g35driver.com/forums/g35-cou...ml#post6298469

I really like your car. The red was my first choice, but I just couldn't find one in my price range. Welcome to the site, but there aren't really a lot of members that will help you without scratching your eyes out about searching first. I tried to sum up the sites with the attached link that most people point you toward, and in my summation, I tried to weed out a lot of the garbage. I hope it helps, and good luck to ya!
