My 05' G35x that came from Texas has a cracked up dash like that. I've been thinking about pulling it out and cutting the cracks out, filling them, then wrap it in carbon wrap or something durable. I have seen more 03'-04' dash pads that are in better shape, I wonder if it's just the 05'-06' that do this?

I've also noticed this happens mostly on 05-06. Before you cut the cracks you should fill them with silicone the shave everything all together. Beware of shiny finish due to the bad reflection on the glass.

This is an old pic, changed the intake since.

The Cleanest this bay ever got before the tire that broke the bottom of this support.

Finally fixed my gaugue, ended up being broken solder connections in the cluster. Thank you G35DRIVER!!!!

Debating if I keep this spoiler and paint it or keep the OEM one and be at peace

The cleanest the car ever got. Will be changing to a full OEM nismo aero. I'm piecing together a 03 front end for this.

I think that spoiler looks really good, nice and low profile/sleek. Is it fiber or poly?

Poly and it appears to be a bitch to paint.
I found a white trunk with an oem spoiler that I'm currently rocking, I'm still debating on this. It's so flexible I'm scared paint will crack.

I have a spare full NISMO kit in white that a friend is bringing. In the spare time I decided to throw the one I'm selling to figure out all needed and it was more than just parts change.
Here it is.

Additional parts required:

03-04 side skirts panel clips male/female
03-04 front bumper support
03-04 hood latch (I ended up cutting mines)

I used my 05 inner fenders however I noticed that some of the clip holes don't line up. I might need 03-04 inner fenders. I had to modify the rear lip for it to fit the 05 bumper, this was a tight fit but pleasing results.

G35 sedan w/ too much money in mods
Looks fantastic, if our 05 sedan was still alive it would have had the Nismo treatment all around. Great job!!

I'm in love with the car all over. One difference I noticed was how I can see the headlights from the drivers seat.
Since the hood/light and grills are different now the perspective is also different from the drivers seat.

An almost year later update.
During the same time of my last post I came across a car tooo good to be true which it was but it wasnt. The car was a 2010 G37S Anniversary Edition. I bought it for $1500 and there went what little motivation I had for the G35.
For those who have had this experience the V36 is just such a better chassis. I still have the G35 which is currently in the garage seeing it's many fixes, then it's for sale.
Bittersweet about it, thanks to it I learned many of the headaches the G sedan can give. I feel bitter due to even throwing my best the car's engine would let me down all the time.
Between engine leaks, lack of power, resonance, and efficiency they really killed my vibe these would take away the positives of the rest that was done to it. She only left me stranded once due to running something over which killed my CKP.
