^Three things to note:

1) I didn't realize you were talking about the rear bumper... it can be made to fit, provided you change out a couple other parts at the same time. I've done this in the 03 ---> 05 direction, and Marcus (CandlestickPark) has done this in the 05 ---> 03 direction

2) I wouldn't trust that site to be completely accurate about year/fitment considering that a 07 G35 is a completely different bodystyle.

3) It's hideous

SES light is on. Basically from being slammed I broke the connector of the O2 sensor both for the one that plugs into the cats and the one leading to the ECU harness. I connected the wires back, not sure if they're connected to the proper wire, but was wondering if I get it hooked up correctly, whether or not that will take away the light. If anyone has a diagram of which color wires connect to which that would be helpful. Or if someone can take a pic because I haven't been able to find a diagram and they're not to the same color either, there's multiple colors. Hard to explain, but you'd see what I mean if you had a look. Just wondering if the wires need to be a certain length or gauge (like the TB wire) so it won't act up, or if it doesn't matter.

i know the 07 is completely different thats why i asked about fitment and what about any that say 03-06?

also had anybody ever attempted to do an 07 front on earlyier models?

Trying to find pics of DG sedans preferably, coupes too though... with painted Rays. Is there any kind of "DG Sedan Thread".. there's one for Coupes... And I've looked through the "OEM Rays Appreciation Thread" already... only found a couple pics.

So I'm replacing the stock resonator (aka mid pipe) with a magnaflow magnapack (essentially a freer flowing, lighter resonator) this weekend. I remember reading that with the coupe midpipes the sedan could develop a rattle of sorts due to the heat shield around it. Should I have this issue with the setup I'm going for or should it be fine?

I don't think so. I know they've done the newer front on a coupe, but never a sedan (that I know of)

Just bend your heat shield upwards... only not too much or this will happen: https://g35driver.com/forums/g35-sed...-teh-dumb.html

Is the car fax clean? Have you had it looked at by your local mechanic? Don't just take the salesman's word for it. Get it thoroughly inspected before you buy a used car you won't regret the extra effort.

My 05 6MT had 73k miles on it with a sticker price of 14,900. "Out of the door price" was negotiated down to 12k. No comment on the interior as I have no knowledge of this.

More importantly, make sure your merchant/dealer is REPUTABLE. I had to make the choice of accepting 12k out of the door little higher miles, or 11,200 from a smaller car shop only 30 miles away WITH lower miles. Simply googled both, and the smaller car shop with the cheaper price got HORRIBLE reviews. I'm talking people with claims of their "new used" car breaking down on the way home, shop making warranty excuses, etc.

So, my strategy was simple, use the smaller car shop's price to haggle down the sticker price of 14,900 from the more reputable dealer. At the end of it all, I paid a little more but also gained "more". Had the piece of mind I was getting a fair deal from a merchant who is known for honest business and building good relationships with their customers. Best $800 I ever overspent on. No problems to this day with the car.

Whats the difference between the *** 03-04 grille and the usdm grille?
Why is that some people have problem with the fitment of the Nissan emblem in the front?

The openings are different sizes for each emblem.

There are quite a number of black sedans with wheat interior... I don't really know why, as blk/blk looks a lot better. but yes, they do exist.

As a random side point, nearly all of the IP ones came with wheat interior, but you could get them with black interior, and those few that are IP/Blk are just dead sexy
