Talking NEW member! with pictures

Hey guys, ive owned my 2003 g35 coupe for around 2 months now and have been searching this forum for quite a long time. I started with a 03 bmw 530, than a 2010 maxima, and i must say my favorite is the infiniti. I figured id finally join. Im 18 from long island. I also have some pictures of my car to upload. I dont have much mods. Just basic tints, 2 spoilers, black vinyl roof, intake and powdercoated rims. Also my car is an automatic:/ Anyway enjoy the pictures, in a few days i will be having a video on youtube as well. Thanks - mike

Nice lookin coupe Mike, your headlights need to be cleaned with a restoration kit or step up to '06 Projectors which is the best mod for first gen G35s....Gary

I'd debadge that INFINITI lettering underneath the Fugi logo on the back. I just did it and it looks pretty clean. Maguires polish will take care of the ghost letters as well. Car looks good though. Also I'd get the 06 projectors as someone else mentioned.

I found online that wd40 works but it wouldn't for me. And my coupe is black so the ghosting was even more noticeable. But I had the polish I mentioned lying around and figured I'd try it. Worked well with a good micro fiber cloth. You can't even tell there was ever a badge there.

if wd40 doesn't work use bug remover and a hairdrier/heat gun. spray, heat up, let sit, remove. then there will be some adhesive left over, so you just repeat. do it that way you shouldn't have any problems and hopefully no ghost letters. mine is an 06 though so i'm not sure
