I agree, the whole assembly looks like a jumbled mess of different lights, but I just like the cluster of mini-projectors. I think its unique, unseen on any other car so far that I know of.

HERE I see somebody put some of the ebay q45 projectors in a Nissan Rogue with some halo's. looks pretty sweet. I would try this if I had the money to buy an extra set of g35 housings to mess with, my car is my only car and I work at night, so I can't live without my headlights lol.

Off topic but
Has anyone ever done an engine swap on the G35 using the 4.5L V8 from the Q45? Hence, a G45? I'm just curious.

I don't think the engine bay is close to big enough, not to mention all the custom computer work to make it all work with the other components would just not be worth it. The interior of the M45 is better than the G anyway. In the end it would probably be cheaper to just get an M45 lol

edit: Just realized you said Q and not M lol, but still would be cheaper to just get the Q or the M

^ Would your A.D.D. be ok with a short video?
Not only will a G35 fit a VH45 or VK45, it will also fit the Titan V8... and a supercharger (just might need to cut a hole in the hood )

its like every other mod that you dont see many of... if not a lot of people have it = its not easy.

lots of time, headache, money and dedication...

wheels and a drop are tiddly winks (I dont car how low or wide you go)...

If you've seen it done a bunch - its easy... if you've seen it dont once it's not.

no... I've had my share of the post above

full build one day, maybe... but I don't want to do anymore reconstruction (well, maybe a couple of current ideas will happen someday)...
