05-06 g35 sedan midpipe??

Where can I find a 05-06 G35 sedan midpipe for a 2003 G35 sedan? I've been looking for them online and it might be just me but I cant find any. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Local Classifieds (craigslist), online classifieds, local dealerships.

Or if you get desperate find someone selling a 350z exhaust and either have a 6" extension welded or buy an extension from mynismo.com for $50.

^^ Not the same...you'd essentially be creating a coupe mid-pipe there, which, depending on the application, might sound better than the 05/06 sedan middy which has a bigger resonator and is therefore quieter.

^^ You'll pay through the nose at the stealer, just fyi. Where are you located? Any particular reason you want the 05/06 rather than, say, a coupe mid (which sounds really great on an 03 sedan, trust me). I'm assuming you want just a bit of sound difference and weight savings...?

Im from Charlotte, NC. Well, its for my boyfriends birthday. He wanted the 05-06 sedan midpipe. He looked at the coupe but decided not to get that one. I looked on craigslist and the dealership is charging $350 with everything. I don't have a clue about any of this stuff.

Didn't realize he wanted a sedan middy. That is pointless IMHO. I would encourage you to get a coupe mid-pipe for him because it sounds more like a coupe.

If you were to ask my girl which one to get, she would tell you to get the Sedan middy and hope to god he doges the mod bug's vicious bite.

Nice GF! You're right, there's square root of squat in your area, not even a coupe mid. You might try calling some local auto wreckers or even ask the dealerships if they have any kicking around, you might get lucky.

Or if you want to get REALLY lucky, buy him these:

Little higher price range, though.

Thank you for all your help! Yea, not sure why he didnt go with the coupe. I think because the 06 sedan fits to where he wouldnt have to custom fit it...maybe. I dont know. Yea, Ill hold off on the rims for now He wants the M35 or M45 rims. I know what they look like but not sure which one they are on. But thank you for looking that up

^^ Coupe midpipe will bolt right on, no modifications. A 350z midpipe would have to be extended, either by a muffler shop or using a pre-fabricated extension (about 50 bucks); that might be what he was thinking of.

The M35/45 rims he likely wants come on the Sport model. They also look super-nice on our cars:

Anyway, glad to help.

Well kit, I have good news and bad news. Good news is I have an 05 sedan midpipe with 58k on it. Bad news is I live in Maryland. I've never shipped a car part before but I can imagine it would be pretty steep. So if you and your boyfriend feel like taking a drive up north we can work something out...

Haha you guys are funny! Ok so I asked him about why he chose the sedan and he said because of a droning sound the coupe has...I guess its an opinion thing. Rims look good! Thanks again for all your help
