Here are the day time pics with a clean car. Also pics of the tail debadged. I think it looks good without the chrome emblem on the front. It actually would look out of place with it chrome there.

G35 Tex,

our "obsibian black" actually has a small amount of red mixed into the black.

I had some paint mixed up (by the paint code) to paint my corner lights to match the car. I was skeptical when the paint shop told me about the red, but there it was according to the paint mixing instructions. I can't rememebr if it was a PPG or duPont paint though.

Anyway, it matches perfectly.

The blacked out grill looks like a very good option for the black cars. Well done!

Looks nice, I would have left the infiniti emblem silver and everything else black, but it's still cool.

I like the look Russ. But for some reason I just can't get used to the blacked out logo, though I'm sure it looks differently in person.

Your pictures have me curious. I wonder what a blacked-out grill would look like on my IP sedan with black rims, and a tint. I have a feeling that it would looky pretty sh!tty, but I just can't picture it in my head. Anyone interested in doing some photochops of my car with a blacked-out grill?

I think it looks better stock--looks kinda like an Altima front.
