Just bought a 04 G35c quick question

okay i've searched but havent found, so maybe u guys can help.

First of all, I want to tell you all that i'm super ****in excited to get a G, its been a car that i've dreamt of having for a long tiime, so I hope to be able to contribute to the conversations here.

Okay, so...

Just bought an 04 g35 coupe, havent driven it yet, but as u can see in the picture there are these black dots or hole in the bottom of the front bumper, why are they there? Do you guys think that a lip used to be on there?

These guys have no clue what they're talking about... Those are air intakes for the super secret cold air intake the previous owner must have had! Pop the hood and see if it's still there!!!

serious! Those holes are from a lip the was installed on your front bumper.
An easy fix would be to buy another lip and install it.....try www.everythingg35.com. He's offering cheap shipping this month.....Good Luck and Welcome!

WTF, how'd you get it for 14k??

The lowest I've ever seen a coupe is 20k.
