ok theres alot of arguing and not alot of resolution...stock side front and rear sills which are the same color on the 05-06 do or do not fit on the 03-04 to replace the grey plastic on the bottom??
Why do I bother to DIY???

How was Chico able to put on the Stillen sides on his car? He's got an '05.

Maybe the Stillen sides (and many aftermarket kits) don't have mounting holes already drilled meaning you have to make the holes yourself? Or maybe its just easy to drill new holes? If the Stillen sides don't have them, you may be able to just drill holes where you want...meaning they may easily fit any year G35.
I know the Nismo sides (and probably the stock sides) have indentations and holes where you drop the plastic pins in. Assuming the OEM sides from the 05-06 have the same mounting points....it should fit.
Best bet would be to ask a member with an 05-06 if they're willing to spend 15-30 mins with you to quickly dismount and try on your car. The sides are easy to remove and remount and you don't need to jackstand the car to do it.

And for the rear of the car, we all know the lights match up. The rest of the lines in the rear match up also. The only difference is the rear bumper of the '05-'06 have an integrated lip.

Matching the paint was a b!tch though.
The bodyshop painted it three times.

The car always lacked something out of the box IMO. The rear splash guards finished it off.
