How much were they? Wish I could've gotten it installed

I'm guessing they are around $300 for the set from a CAnadian Dealer (they were about that for 05/06). I got mine thrown into the deal installed when I ordered my car.
In the US from Infiniti they are $140 for the set of 4, click here> Accessories

Perhaps it's time to rattle some chains at your end, since it looks like they are making their way into Canada finally

I might attempt to install mine myself since I don't want to drive 4 hours each way to have the dealership install them. That or maybe get my local Nissan dealership to install them.

If I had my summer rims on I would probably do the install myself, so they wouldn't have to mess around with the rims.

I didn't know that
. Thanks sooooo much, good info, now I won't have to worry about any body mods

Thanks for the update Wayne. I am going to see the dealer on Tuesday. When I picked up the vehicle last week they had forgotten to adjust the air pressure in the tires 48+psi. Upon adjusting back to 33psi my TPMS light is now on and driving it above 25Km/h as it says in the manual does not reset it. I will definetly ask them about availability of splash guards. Which dealer are you with Wayne?

Concerning your TPSM light, it normally will only reset itself after you shut the car down, then when you restart it it should be off, at least that's the way my last G worked.

Have you checked with a different gage? Also, did you check when the tires were cold? It doesn't seem right that they were working at 48 psi (hot) but are not working correctly now.
Check all 4 tires with a different gage. This may save you a trip to the dealer.
Yes i did check the tires when they were cold, left overnight and checked in the morning. Also checked all 4 tires with 2 different guages. Shutting the car down and restarting did not reset as the light has been on for a few days now.

From the pictures, I'm not sure they make all that much difference in terms of aesthetics. I'm also curious if they really help protect the car. Doesn't seem they would make a big difference from the pictures. I guess I'll need to see a real car and not just pics. On the other hand, they don't cost that much, and for the price, may not be worth spending too much time analyzing the issue and just getting it.
They're kinda hard NOT to see - they're behind each wheel well.
And I find gunk on mine after driving all the time - so they do work.
Not a bad idea to look at them in person anyway.

). There's not many G35s where I live, so I don't think I'll actually find one w/ splashguards (without having to go to the dealer an hour away). I've only seen two others in the past couple of months, and one was the previous generation (aside: I walked out of a bookstore today and there was a previous generation G parked right next to my car. That was pretty interesting seeing both together. Definitely quite a difference between the two).Anyway, based on the additional pictures in the other thread, IMO, they're subtle, but elegant looking, I must say... and if they really do work, they're definitely worth getting! I'll place an order so they'll have a set ready for my first oil change!
Wow, and I was worried about getting a G35 since the nearest Infiniti from me is one hour away!
My Acura dealer is only 15 minutes away.
Dropping the MDX off for oil changes, I was given full day loaner TL's (including a Type-S) 4 different times.
Even though my closest Infiniti dealer is 75 minutes away, I had to go with the G.
One test drive and I was sold.
The G has it all over everything else in it's price range.
I also opted for Splash Guards.
I like the look of the car better with them than without.
Hopefully, they're functional as well!
