I'm trying to find a replacement online. I am going to ask the dealer about it, too, but mine isn't that bad. It's just that I'm so **** that I thought I might replace it anyway. I was curious as to how much it was.

So I'm googling 'G35 door pull' with no luck. What is that piece called? I'm talking about the piece that has the window up/down buttons on it as well as the hole that you put your fingers in when closing the door from the inside.

Any help is appreciated.

Later.

 

Finisher? Switch Bezel?

Check out the link. #7 in the diagram

EDIT: Link did not quite work.
Search your car and then the following:
Front Door
Interior Trim
Switch Bezel
Then click on "View Illustration"

 

I had the same problem but they are expensive. They are painted alum. so if you have alum. interior, you can just sand the paint off.

You have an 08 sedan and should still be under the factory warranty as long as you are under 60k. Take it to your local dealer and show them in their face how easily these trim pieces scratch even with the slightest touch with your fingernails. I just did that the other day at OC Infiniti and my rep ordered me new door pulls + new steering wheel! I hope the new pieces stay fresh and clean for long.

 

I'm talking about this plastic piece:

 

Did you already have scratches or did you do this preemptively?

 

I had few scratches even though I have been super cautious with those pieces b/c I knew that they are very prone to chipping. So as I was nearing the end of my warranty period, I went to my service advisor who is in the process of replacing bunch of parts under warranty for me. I explained to him the issues with those rubbery interior pieces and showed him exactly how easily they chip. He told me that it was a design flaw and all he could do is replace them under warranty. I explained to him that 09+ sedans have a hard plastic piece for the door pull and a steering bezel that does not scratch. So I tried to see if it's possible to replace them with the newer pieces. However, he said he can't replace them with those revised parts because all parts are ordered by the original car's VIN#. Your best bet is to try your local dealer IMO. GL!

 

on my work order from infiniti when i had them replaced i believed they called them door sills

 

On my repair order, they called it "left (or right) front grab handle finisher".

btw sprocket....you seem to be slipping in thread count; only 25 in your first month now

 

Thanks

 

You know it might be cheaper to just sand all that down w/ 360 grit and take it to a paint shop. I did that. It came out great!

 

^whs, it is the switch bezel indeed, i looked into this with rick when i was planning on replacing mine and they were about ~$30 as stated. Also rick suggested i get 08s way back then since they were the new harder material and the 07s still had the softer finish, not sure if they are making the hard plastic bezels for the 07s replacments or not, just make sure you get t he right ones.

@dukehotty: the 07+ Gs have plastic underneath and sanding it wont give you the alum look like yours.

@pattyballs: thats strange they wrote that, cause im pretty sure that door sills are supposed to be the plates that run along the bottom, the illuminated kickplates/door sills kind but not lighted.

 

EDIT:

This is the color of my car seats/carpet. (This isn't my car, thank you to whomever I lifted this photo from.) Is it stone?

Thanks all. Switch bezel it is. By the way. What color is my interior? I am not sure if I have stone or wheat?

Mine is the same color as this. My seats are whitish. My carpet is like tan, though.

 

You guys realize that it's still called a "finisher-power window" in that link.
If you select the color, this is what comes up:
