My first g35

Actually, the 03/04 tails he has on there suit that shaved trunk better. Reason being the LED 'lines' being horizantal draws you away from the massive void ont he trunk.
The circular tails (that do look 10x better almost always) kind of 'imprint' your focus in the center. This leaves you looking at a big empty flat rear end. It's not appealing.

As it sits now his car resembles this:
I'd rather have something that resembles this:
Of course I know he would have to use body color to paint the tails around the rings and then rewire the turn signals if he wants to do it properly but even without that it would look better

I'm gonna have to strongly disagree with you on this one dude.

I'm not saying the 05/06 will look bad, again, they are a much better looking tailight, but with the blank trunk and shaved reverse lights, I'm ont sure I'd be able to reason $200-400 for the 'upgrade'. WEither way respect your opinion, but man, what a horible picture comparison.

Neither of those cars looks ANYTHING like the G35. Neither looks ANYTHING like what he has, or even what the 05/06 tails look like.

Sorry man but you can't win them all.
Fact is the G35 has dual ring tails as an homage to the old skylines, and it was meant to RESEMBLE them. It does so in a more classy and expensive looking fashion, because it had an entirely different target market. Everyone knows that. So you can't say it doesn't look ANYTHING like it because it was meant to look at the VERY LEAST vaguely like it.
Fact is that having shaved tails DOES make his car look more like a scion. Take a look again if you please. Three distinct rows of six LED's running across the bottom with a turn signal above it. That's a no brainer. Don't really know how you could've missed that, as I'm sure I'm not the first person to notice.
I will concede that his car did NOT pull a transformers and turn into a tc, and it will NOT pull a transformers and turn into a skyline by upgrading, but the basic idea still stands.
