Well I have a stock 2006 IP 5AT Sedan and have decided on some add-ons. One is a set of Gold luff m1 wheels. Second being rebadging - well I simply want to swap out my silver infiniti logos and letters for gold ones.

If I can get my hands on a set of gold skyline letters and 350gt badge then the better because in this part of the world - i havent seen a SINGLE g35 modded or fitted with addons such as wheels etc.

I've searched these forums with no luck so if anyone has come across the gold badges please let me know.

Cheers

 

If you want to go the gold route I would consider having them painted to match the rims instead of plated. I think the gold plate would look like crap on a G. It's more of a 90's caddy thing.

 

^^^^
listen to this man
he knows his Sh*t

 

Black pearl badges would look way better IMO. Not meant to be bling-bling yet noticeably different than stock.

 

black pearl would go well with black rims imo.. i want to get gold badges for now... if they dont go well with the gold rims i can always paint them.

for now i dont want to change my stock logo color.

 

MMMM black pearl/black chrome badges are beautiful. I would love to find someone who would do mine for me. I emailed a few places and they said no.

 

infiniti-parts.com has gold infiniti/g35/mt fuji emblems

 

infiniti-parts.com has infiniti emblems in black pearl i believe as well

 

Haha.
Thanks

 

Oh yeah, I saw them on there one time. They were $$$. Plus I still need to do my "SUPERCHARGED" emblem. Maybe that one can stay silver.

 

holy 199 for the gold emblems... damn hmm alrite if i cant find them elsewhere ill get my rims first and then work on the badges.

i rather spend that 199 towards a MD 5/16 plenum.

 

Good choice!

 

i have a feeling someone will have a quick answer to this q so i didnt make another topic.

I got a quote for a set of wheels:


http://keiracing.com/wheels_kruze.html

18 x 7.5 in Gloss Black 5100 Dhs. (TOYO T1R TYRES – 215/35/18 4400 dhs.)

19 x 7 GB 6000 Dhs. (TOYO T1R – 215/35/19 6000 Dhs.)

Offsets were not mentioned. I dont know much about tires but isnt 215 too small seeing most people here get 345 or above for their sedans? sorry im a tire noob!

 

What is your question?

First off those rims are too narrow IMO. Get 19x8.5 if you can. If you do a 245/40 is a nice size. If you stick with the 7.5's then get 235's.

 

This is correct.I have a cousin who is an Infiniti sales manager.Walking through the lot one day I noticed a G with the gold badging.
I said I liked it it.He pointed out to me the flaking problem with the plating.
Upon closer inspection I couldn't get over at how bad it was.
Don't they know "you can" clear coat plating to give it longer life!
