best thing about these cars is you can get the speedo calibrated to your wheel/tire combo

How do you do that? I just know I'm going 4 mph less than what I'm reading, which keeps from getting tickets.

Don't you have to get tuned to be able to do that? or is there some magical way to do it without tuning on g35's?

A week a go when i shut my hood while my lights were on, didnt slam it or anything, but my driver side headlight flickered then shut off. everytime i turned it on and off it just flickered and went out, but now it just doesnt turn off. a couple days after this the passenger light has also gone out. I checked the fuses and they were fine. Im not the take it to the dealership and have them deal with it kinda person so im up for any suggestions thanks a lot

Yes it is.

That was also off topic. But everyone says Dr. Pepper tastes like medicine. Not to me it doesn't so I had to say it.

HATERS.

speedo isnt always 100% accurate. Mine was 3-5 mph off. Also I am told consumer GPS devices aren't 100% accurate also so it can also be 1-3 mph off.

my friend wet sand them with 1500 then 2000 , used compound , buffed them , but the buffer was some cheap walmart one so i think maybe that was the problem, and they still hazy.

but are those headlights i posted any good?
