G35 2004 couple of questions.

I like the look of the front bumpers of the coupe, and they look sturdier than the Sedan. My 5AT Sedan hit a simple bank of snow and cracked that lower part of the front bumper because it's not reinforced. (Not sure if it should be because the guy replaced the OEM lights and I think he forgot a few things.)

Also, do you guys have wheel wells that protect the lights wires? Because the back of my lights on my Sedan are showing if you look in the tire wheel well.

Another thing I'm thinking about is I love the look of the 2005 Instrument cluster. Is there some way to get that in my 2004 without any issues?

Also, do you guys have wheel wells that protect the lights wires? Because the back of my lights on my Sedan are showing if you look in the tire wheel well. You are missing the splash shields that should line the wheel wells.

See above

It would take alot of work to switch dash.Not worth the head ache.The person you got your G from might have rebuilt the G.Are both headlights visible from wheel well? Is your frt bumper fiberglass? Check your title to see if it says rebuilt on it.

Sounds like your wheel well liners are missing, along with who knows what else.

All the underside plastics on the sedan tie in together. The wheel liners connector to the under shroud which ties to the bumper. Possible if those are all missing, it contributed to the damage to your bumper.

I've whacked plenty of snow/ice mounds with my front bumper and no damage to date.

Looking at many pictures online I can see that I am missing my fender liners and my engine undershroud.. Sadly though, none of the wrecking yards near me have a G35 so I might have to buy them new.

The previous owner that installed the custom headlights I guess thought it would be nice to leave those things off..
