From what I've read:
The coupe midpipe flows better than the sedan midpipe
The HR y pipe flows better than all the DE y pipes - It's sorta longer after the cats and has an easier bend where the pipes converge.
I'm currently trying to solve this wear - must be a bushing/ball joint.
Driving/fog lights
Seems like the lower front intakes are made for them. Why else are they just plastic inserts that pop out so easily? However, all the ones I've seen are labeled for coupe only. Can they be made to fit? The shape seems very similar to the inserts on my sedan, but didn't want expensive paperweights if I'm wrong. Has anyone tried them?

Ok
But I still wonder why they are there at all. I see lots of cars that have blank inserts that look like they're made for optional lights that weren't installed. Just seemed similar. ' Why would Infiniti make a part to be modified for the install of fog lights on a car that already has them?'
And yet the coupe does , just not the sedan, yes?

Has anyone taken out the clock on an 06 G?
I was able to remove the climate display, but haven't gotten the clock out from there yet. I was hoping it would not require me to unscrew the whole climate backing, but it still feels pretty snug after undoing the top 2 clips.
The only thing I can ever find online is the 03 Gs which is a completely different design and doesn't help.
I can make a how to later if there really isn't one yet for this design style, likely 05 and 06, since I couldn't find pics on even removing the display, but was able to get it out. Now I just need to remove the clock itself so I can replace mine.
I can show a pic later of the climate display pulled out if it helps, but I think you can understand what I am referring to.
*edit: added a quick photo showing the back side*

Not sure what you're asking here but both coupe and sedan have fog lights. They work off the high beam dual filament bulb......
Need help with Dashboard fix!
Hey guys I'm new to this, I'll cut to the point. A piece of my dashboard is a bit detached and I really want to fix it because it looks horrible (my opinion). I don't want a costly solution, I was wondering what you guys think I could do myself to fix my dash panel.
