New to the G35 family

Hey guys, i am new to the G35 Coupe family!!

i just got my car around 2 months ago and i have been having a blast with it. Everyone stares at my car as it is right now, stock.

I was just wondering what is the name of the color for my car as i was searching it online but cant find it. Its either a Slate Blue or Ocean Blue ... im not quite sure. I want to know this because im thinking of adding a spoiler to my car.

And what color rims would you guys think would go well with this color of blue? Pure chrome? Idk, any suggestions of types of rims would be good.

Thanks guys

Welcome newb.

Feel free to navigate around the coupe section as well familiarize yourself with the site if you plan on modding your G. Don't let the mod bug bite; I don't think there's a cure.

First thing I would recommend to you is to change out the wheels and lower it when you find a set you like. Find a tow hook cover ASAP as well.

hahahaha ... i can see that with all the modded cars here!! its insane!!
the only sad thing is that i have to save up the cash for it because im just a student here
yeah ... in rhode island, it is the law to put a plate if there is a hole in ur front bumper ... its stupid but yeah ... its covered now. tow hook covered.

i was wondering about spacers and how it works. im totally new to the car modding scene but i am really interested in it. so yeah, id love to learn more about it.

and is it really hard to change the bulbs on the headlights? i was thinking of putting in a few white L.E.Ds.

thanks guys, its awesome to be in the G family!!

Niceee ... i love the G35 ... one of the most sexies cars ive seen in America so far.

we have it back home too but not as much as here.

i was looking at chrome rims because i dont think the blue will sit well with black or other weird colors ... ive been searching through the website for rims but none seems to tingle my fancy ... weird.

but the volk gt30 and gt-s looks so damn sexy!! but its hard just to picture it on my shade of blue.

gunmetal or bronze/gold wheels would look good.

do some research on the MotorDyne 5/16 spacer

www.MotorDyne.com

where on the headlights do you want the LED's?

i dont know what it is called but its next to the headlights, the straight line going down. i want a few LEDs going down that straight line because it looks weird it being a different color than the HID. you get? i know its confusing but yeah ... i try ;p

its called the "Clearance Strip"

Send a Private Message (PM) to member/sponsor IvoryGT if you have any questions about your headlights. He knows his stuff
