Does anybody know if varrstoen lug nuts fit on oem 19" rays? (I already have the nuts so save your time by not preaching to me about how varrstoen blows)

Not sure if this has been asked before, and I didn't want to start a new thread:

How hard is it to replace the amber running/turn signal bulb in front of the 05 lights? I was looking at it from the engine bay and it seems way down there. Or do I need to go through the wheel well?

Easiest way is to jack up the front a bit so you have space between the well and the tire, pull back the liner a bit and with a ratchet with an extension and joint adapter remove the 2 10mm bolts holding the bumper on. Once that side of the bumper is hanging down you can access all 4 10mm bolts holding the headlight on. Take em out and change it with the light out.

Takes 15 mins and you won't cut up your hands.

All u have to do is remove the intake for the driver side, and push a dent in the splash guard on the passenger side to make room.

It takes 15 minutes. Takes 2 push rivets that come out in 2 seconds and the bumper comes off in 2 mins. 4 bolts for the headlight..what's the big deal? Beats getting frustrated trying to maneuver yer hand thru there and getting all cut up.

I recently bought some G35 Rays for $300 with tires, but one wheel's paint was pretty corroded so I was just gonna get it refinished. I went to Tirehaus (Im in Canada) and they said that these wheels have an expensive paint (hyper silver) so it is gonna cost $250-$300 to bring the single wheel back to new. I looked at other wheels they have done and they looked brand new, so they are good. Do you guys think this is a fair price for a single wheel refinish?
