Isn't that where the plug goes to let you know/prevent you from mixing up front wheels and back wheels? I don't think you need anything there

I have a sedan so there is no difference between front and rear. I was thinking perhaps its there to keep the rotor against the hub.

The car has been paid for since 110,000 miles. It was from my parents. I am 18 and lol insurance is expensive enough without getting a motorcycle. I was lucky with AAA because I got it for 73 bucks a month. I just want to fancy it up

doesn't look like the hole goes any deeper to where threads of a screw would follow.
possibly if the rotor was balanced, they drilled out that little bit of metal to make it balance out.

There's a hole like that on the rear rotors that is an access port for adjusting the parking brake. IDK why the front has it

nope, just as a triple clarification.

Some rotors have that for factory assembly and to retain the rotor 100% flat, ours doesn't as I recall. Either way, they're not needed.

Yes, the front and rear rotors are quite different. Rear has a parking brake and is smaller in diameter.

Well LEDs aren't expensive but seriously if you know you're getting another car you have to keep that in the back of your mind and keep modding minimal. Its easy to get carried away. Anyways go to v-leds for LEDs. And I have a stillen intake for sale if you want it

Looks great, mild drop would give it a perfect oem+ look IMO, what did you use for the handles?

Where can i find a good spoiler with a 3rd brake light built in. Will drilling be required to mount it? Is there any spoiler that works with 3m tape or that doesn't require drilling.

any link to a reliable vendor for spoiler will be appreciated.

Edit: Found one website that carries a spoiler. here it is. Anybody tried this spoiler before?

http://www.carid.com/2005-infiniti-g...er-941503.html

http://www.carid.com/2005-infiniti-g...r-1002062.html

How much should i expect to pay for the installation?

on other note, having done 115k, is it required to change shocks and springs on sedan? Any way to visually inspect it to see if it needs replacement.

Thanks

I was thinking in reference to the rear wheels (how the G coupe has the OEM 19's with the wider wheel). Thinking something totally different.
