G35 newby needs simple advice
Hey,
I apologize if this post overlaps with preexisting threads, but my questions are simple and should be easy enough to answer.
My brother sold me his G35 2004 Coupe at a good price. I'm looking to do a few mods to it, and for each mod I have a question:
1) Replace front grill with aftermarket aluminum billet grill. I cannot do this myself, and would need to bring it to a shop. Infiniti charges 250 to do it, around two hours of work. Can I find a place which does it for less, and how much should I expect to pay and will my car still be covered by the warranty? Also, does anyone know of any reliable websites or ebay sellers who I can purchase a new grill from?
2)Replace yellow signals with white ones. Again, how much should the labor be for this?
3) Replace Infiniti wheel caps (18" 5 spoke sport rims) with blank caps. Are caps exchangeable, do I have to find ones specific for my car or my rims?
4) Debadging. If I were to reapply badges, how much would that cost?
What kind of shop must I bring the car to in order to have these little mods done? Would any autobody shop do it, or do I have to go to a custom car one? If anyone is in the south Florida (ft. lauderdale, palm beach) area and knows of a place, please tell me.
Thank you for all the help,

.... Ok.... Um.... Search a little bit and YOU CAN do ALL of this stuff YOURSELF!!! Save your money!!! It is EASY!!
And billet grille = NOOOOOOOOooooooooo!!!
Paint your OEM grille black and move on
Clear corners = 2 miniutes... 60 seconds ea.
Debaging = fishing line & goo gone & heat gun & 2 hrs max!
Seriously .... do it yourself and save the $$$ You can do it and it is FUUUUN!
LOL if you can't do the clear corners yourself..then God help you. It doesn't even take 60 seconds. Takes literally, half a second to pop them off and about another 2 to take them off, and another 10 to get the clear corner on, and another 5 seconds to press it back into bumper.

Poor guy is getting flamed like crazy...but yeah come on now hand, all very simple, just look on google or the site sponsors to find most of that stuff your talking about for a cheap price!! If you absolutely needed to go to a shop, I'm sure theres a shop around you that specializes in imports. Oh and btw, why would you want to re badge??
