1. i bought my 2003 g35 coupe about a month ago, loving every second of it
i noticed however the analog clock does not illuminate


is it supposed to be illuminated? how can i get it illuminated

2. i bottomed out pretty hard and i got a scratch and cracked this piece in half. i have no idea what its called but its the bottom most piece of the front bumper and i cant find another one anywhere

 

1. the analog clock illuminate when u turn on your headlights.
2. that's called a lip.

 

nooo i know what you trying to say but it simply doesnt illuminate at all. at night il be driving and i have to turn on the map lights to be able to see the clock

 

you need to have your dealer put new LED's in the clock

The OEM lip is ****ed. it will cost too much to repair, your better off buying a new one

 

or u can do it urself and save some $.

not as difficult as i though

 

thanks for that link... ill have to give it a try

also, any idea where i can get another oem lip? im currently googling it but i cant find one

 

Send a Private Message (PM) to Tony@RiversideInfiniti he is a site sponsor/vendor and can get a lip for you

 

don't buy new bulbs from infiniti. they are too dim and with a black clock face you still wont see the time.

 

Or you could call Tony and actually talk to a real person 800-919-8130. He'll take care of the bulb for your clock too....

Exactly what I did. Used some Grain of wheat bulbs and replaced them both. Took some time, but was not tough.

 

No its not. Buy some Fusor 147 or 3M makes body adhesives that will do the job and fill in and repair the crack. Sand down, shoot high build primer, base, and reclear.

Youre gonna have to pay to paint a new one anyways unless you luck out and find one in IP in the classifieds.

I just ordered LED's from there to replace them. If you click through the pictures on the "NEOWEDGE series LED lamp" it's the NEO4 bulb that you need to order.

I ordered 4 of them, just in case. 2 in amber, and 2 in white. I couldn't stand the factory bulbs, with my black clock face, you could not see the time.
