Anyone know the difference between these two carbon fiber hoods and an explanation why one is more expensive than the other?

this is the sedan section. You might want to ask the coupe guys, those hoods don't fit our cars

Wheel/Tire Size Question
First, I have done a ton of searching, only to become more confused.
The only cars I have ever modified were the 4 SVT Contours I have owned. Front wheel drive V6 prone to many problems. I liked them, but wanted something newer and nicer, hence going with a G.
I love the rake of the G, but want to drop it. Planning on Eibach springs since it appears to be an even drop all the way around.
My question is this... I want to put 19s on it. I do not want to have to worry about changing the camber and rolling the feners and al that nonsense.
I also want wider wheels/tires. I would like a larger lip on the wheels in the back then in the front for a staggered look.
What size/s would be best for this set up?
If this has been discussed before and I jsut missed it, I apologize. If someone can point me in the right direction or help me out, that would be great as I know absolutely nothing about this type of set up...

I have a question that i need to be answered. I have been looking everywhere and can't find a solid answer.
I have an 03 g35 sedan and my RH side lower control arm is bent and I need a new one.
I have been searching everywhere and can not find one. I went to orielly, autoparts, and autozone and they all have a lower control arm but its for the coupe and they have no sedan in the system for one.
Question is, will the 03 g35 coupe lower control arm also fit an 03 sedan?
Here is a picture of mine so we know what part it is just incase there is confusion.

Thats not a lower control arm in your pic, it's a compression rod & yes coupes will work

Unless you really screw up and get truck-sized tires (completely wrong size) you will have no issue with a 19 or 20" rim on this car. Now, if you're talking about moronic 22"+ rims, well, you're on your own.

Im making a PNP module that takes 3 inputs - brakes, turn, and city (rear lights) and puts out 2-3 outputs that act as a brake + sequential turn signal combo. Im using it on my mazda (Using the reverse, turn signal and brake housings). Difference from other pnp sequential taillight kits (mainly used on mustangs) is that the lights wont be sequential when using brakes, only turn signal. And of course, Im designing and producing it.
Last part Im trying to design before getting the components and breadboarding it is...how to get the 10.6V 1 mA signal to switch a 12V 3 A power supply at low cost. Right now I am looking at using a p channel an n channel fet feeding a pnp bjt. Im not sure if anyone here has the background to help me with that here...but Ill mention it just in case!
Also, what is the highest voltage typically seen on a car battery on any car?

Any ideas for a cool sidemarker design? I could make like 3 rows of LEDs and have them light up like a wave, going front to back, or bottom to to top, or vice versa, or whatever. If they turned out nice Id just sell them after. I want to start getting more hand on experience with this stuff

As for your Operating voltage Q: Peak Voltage should not exceed 14.6 on a properly functioning Regulator/Alternator. The range is normally 13.3-14.3V while running, and IIRC static/steady voltage should be maintained at 13.6 Approximately.
If you do calculations based on 13.6 VDC that will be the most accurate.
