I loved my Sebring. Several people in So Cal have heard it and really liked the sound as well. It'll require part of your OEM muffler to be cut and a pipe to be welded from the muffler to the part that is cut off that connects to the midpipe. But it can be done for under 250 installed. I got mine from Labree Motorsports in So Cal. They installed it too. I'm sure you can find the same muffler they sell on their website (www.labreemotorsports.com) nearby where you are or an online vendor. If I ever go back to having a muffler again, I'll go the same route. I had a coupe midpipe and Kinetix test pipes. It wasn't really that raspy, just a little at WOT, but that's because of the non-resonated test pipes. With stock mufflers and coupe midpipe it sounded great. No drone, no rasp. Both setups sounded beefy and deep.

Yeah, once you lower, stock really does look like a 4x4. I see what you guys were talking about now lol

I agree, would look better with a drop

I currently live in NE ohio, so I feel like the snow would mess with the bumper. Correct me if I'm wrong though

Tire pressure issues - or not

so here is another quirky issue with my G35, fairly recent new tires, about 20-25 minutes into drive time, my tire pressure check light comes on, just the light, no audible alarm. I've checked my tire pressure many times, it is fine, when I shut the car off the alarm is reset, stays off until 20-25 minutes into my next drive time. all tire pressure is set at 32psi.
anyone has seen this issue? I hear that over pressurized tires could cause the problem, possible that one tire may be heating up faster than the others and setting off the alarm.

Mine started doing this recently. I'm assuming at least one of the TPMS sensors needs to be reset or replaced. I think I read somewhere that they have batteries in them that eventually run down which kicks on the light like that. I don't believe it's anything to do with the actual tire pressure since the alarm isn't going off. Mine does it every day on the drive to work and again on the drive home.

Do the 05+ Coupes have the Same Light Pattern as 03-04?

Hey everyone. New to posting here on G35Driver, and I was wondering something..

I love the light pattern of the G35 coupe's brake lights. The ring, followed by the three lines of the "LEDs".

I see Gs WITHOUT that pattern a lot of the time, and it's personally my favorite one. Is it set to some of the years?

If 2005 does indeed have a different pattern, can I replace the taillights with the 2003 ones, or would they not fit?

Thanks G Drivers!

So Danny, which Gs don't have the LED rows? Because I see Gs without that pattern all the time, so I heard that 03-04 only have those LED rows, and 05-07 have a redesigned pattern without the LED rows.
