new G, and new to the forums

hey folks i just recently (bout a month and a half ago) got an 05G35 coupe, graphite with willow int. so far all ive done is 5% tint all around.

im more worried about making my payments than i am modding it at this point lol.

one thing i really want to take off tho because it bugs the living heck out of me are the orange sidemarkers... where can i order clear (or colored?) ones?

also any other suggestions on not-too-expensive mods would be nice, since tax returns are coming soon...

Hmmm...

How old are you? 19? You should make sure you can afford something before you buy it. There is something called budgeting, find out what it is and use it! Otherwise you are going to end up driving a Neon (used!).

Welcome to the G35 world and good luck!

you can pm chad@infinitispecialists for the clear corners. I think they have the best price. check out the marketplace for mods. welcome.

you can always grab them from everythingg35 [http://www.g35parts.com/9083/osc/pro...oducts_id=342]. you actually just missed the sale on these, they were going for $20.

Congrats on the new G, and welcome to the forums.

welcome to the forum, man. there's nothing wrong with putting off mods and making sure you have money for car payments first. for the clear corners, just make sure they're nissan brand. ebay ones seem to have fitment/quality issues. but as a G owner, i'd hope you'd stay away from generic parts anyways.

I bought a set off ebay for $20 including shipping and they held up well and look good. Most sets sell for $20-30 and then add $10-15 for shipping. Shop around, lots of places buy. As far as mods, don't worry about it, you have a very nice car in stock form, and can always mod in future. Conrats on new car.

good guess, i am infact 19. and my budgeting is fine, my rent/car payments/other bills are all covered, with some extra at the end of the month for playing around with.

i just dont have THOUSANDS of extra for those really expensive mods (most engine work/bumpers)

thanks your concern though? i guess?

French, don't worry about fcarpio. There are a lot of geezers hating on the younger G drivers on here. I say congrats on the purchase and to be paying your own way. I would like to know how many of you haters were still taking money from your parents when you were 18.
