Nice job! I did a conversion as well but kept it all stock. Used G37xS parts are extremely rare or extremely expensive. If you go thru the dealership for 100% of your parts, I will say the conversion is not worth it from a financial standpoint (salvador312 I hope ur reading). Headlights new are $1000+ each! Im in shock you got the parts for so cheap! There is some useful info over on myG37.com about conversions too, but you seem to be pretty much complete. I recommend driving around for a while without the lip. Get used to the look of the car without it, and once the lip goes on youre gonna be like OOOOMMMMGGG WTF, HELL YEAAHH!!! It transforms the look of the car one more time for you. Your car was originally a good looking car that Japan finally got right, now it's a b1tch magnet. You will find people staring at your car almost to the point of drooling. You will find yourself doing the same thing lol. When your car looks like this, you start to notice things like Flat-Bed tow trucks in the area, and you get way more hesitant of parking in places you used to before the conversion. Its almost like you have a new baby. Oh yeah, those HID fogs sure are nice aint they... since you went this far, what else do you have planned for future mods/enhancements? Keep up the good work bro.

OMG!! This is so tempting......... Im the kind of person that gets sick of a same thing easily, as you can tell I already Dipped my G red and then went back to Black.. and trying out my new all around grounding lips.
I got a bit over 2g's.. this would be a good way to spend it.
Would you recomend doing this Shurik??
I got hook ups for parts at 20% off at the dealer and also on used parts here locally..
Tempting... ... ... .. ... .. . this conversion and the stock G37sport BBK

Alright guys here's some pics of the transformation! Some are cell phone quality, sorry about that! Didn't have my DSLR at that time.

Here's the difference between the old washer bottle and new one you'll need.

headlight wiring. That brown socket is your foglight socket. I spliced it into the new wiring of the new headlights and boom, you got yourself a 100% genuine fog socket! It's actually complicated then what it looks cause they made some changes to those headlight wireing behind those insulations.
