For stubborn sticky residue left on paint, I would use a plastic scraper tool like the kind that comes with my George Foreman kitchen grill. No joke, I use it all the time and it does work without harming the paint. Try it out and see how it works out.
At any point, congrats on picking up the G35 and welcome to the Driver forum!

Well, I didn't find my tow hook cover anywhere in the car. Though I did find my cargo net in the wheel well along with the med kit still in plastic wrap. Noticed that it had a full size spare that has never been driven on. For some reason I thought these cars had donuts.
Looks like I'll have to buy a tow hook cover off a member here or at the stealership.
Anybody have a spare Diamond Graphite tow hook cover for sale?

Really haven't thought about mods a whole lot. I know I'm going to want to upgrade the radio to a touchscreen dvd set up. Wont need nav, so that's going to be easier on the wallet there. Also I think I would like to drop it, of course.
Oh yeah, and tint the windows... the summer sun is going to be killer on the black leather. To bad the G's didn't get the cooled seats that the M's have.

The Premium C model comes with the full size.
IIRC, the only options available on top of Prem C are, NAV, Chrome wheels, Trunk Mat, Sat radio and splashgaurds....so you might have some of those features too

Though the dealership put it as "the sunroof launch package" ... Wth is that supposed to mean? lol Then again, they also said it had a single disc cd player. I don't know who wrote the internet ad, but they didn't really know about the car.

Good idea lol I don't think my fingernail is hard enough to damage the paint, but then again I guess I never really tried to damage car paint with my fingernail haha
Thank you! Yes I'm in Indiana.. Elkhart area. Had to get the X for all that lake effect snow we get here lol. Also, how do you suppose I remove the adhesive without scratching the paint? I don't know how fragile the paint will get with the solvent on it, I was really going to try the floss idea. I don't think it would harm the paint that much.

Nice! Congrats to you as well then. It felt like Christmas week as an 8yr old the days before I had my appointment to get the car lol.
Oh ok, so there IS one out there hehe
but really I think its more rare to find one without a sun roof. Must have been a cheap option? lol People keep asking how my car is doing too, like they expect something to go horribly wrong with it. lol I think its annoying to them when reply "Great! Its the best car I have ever owned! How's your car?" lol
