New G35 Owner

Hi everyone. I just wanted to introduce myself as I am a new g35 owner. I just bought it yesterday. Black/Tan 2005 MT.

I have a few pictures I wanted to just share that I took from my iphone also.

There a few dings here and there but two small issues that I want to change is the infiniti emblem on the front of the grill is missing. The grill looks like it's not stock either - I don't really like this look too much but I also don't think it's too hard to change. Any advice?

Also, the center armrest in the rear of the car is missing - not the whole thing, but it seems to be missing the top part of it. Anyone know where I can find this?

Thanks in advance. I look forward to becoming a part of this G35 community.

Hello and welcome to the Driver. You have a billet style grille and it doesn't come with the emblem. That is a very popular aftermarket part. Here is a common site with the billet style: http://www.g35parts.com/9083/osc/pro...97c3aca24f7048

Nice looking coupe.

You're Welcome! Do you plan to keep the grille or take it back to stock? IMO I like the stock grille - I want to paint mine a dark gray, like the DG G color. I am thinking about doing all my accents in DG. Really make my brilliant silver stand out if I paint the light housing, grille (minus the emblem) and stock spokes diamond graphite! Just my opinion.
ALOT of folks prefer your style grille though.

i like the stock grill too.. but now that i found out that my current grill is around 200 bucks.. i feel it might be a waste to buy a stock grill. i could sell it tho and get another grill..

i have so many questions about taking care of this car, i might just start a new thread.

Good question, not a clue. The link O HELLA OEM provided is the place to get all those questions answered. Rick is a G Guru. Also the link I sent you is also a good place to check out parts. There are stock parts available on that site too.
