I baked my last headlights for my Acura and it wasn't too successful. lol
but those aren't overlays. Those are actual the whole housing. Like a brand new pair of headlights.

And I tried the fuse drink, didn't work. I'm going to have to just get the dash kit and the double din navi. Not really looking forward to paying for all that but hell, it will be worth it in the end. thanks for the input elay!

WELCOME!

Thanks for the concern. I was concerned about the price too. We had the owner take it to a local Infinity dealership who did a "100 Point Inspection" pn it that I paid for. They told me it was in excellent condition. The guy was in a financial jam and I just got lucky I hope. We'll see in the coming months.

I talked him down from $12,000. We agreed on $10k and then once I got down there I found out that the CD player wasn't working. I got him to take $200 more off of the price so that I could attempt to fix it.

I hope I got a good deal and not a car with hidden issues. If I have any problems you can bet I'll be here asking everyone's advice! haha

thanks

I've got another question too...

My steering wheel has some discoloration from wear. There is a black underneath the grey leather color and it's bogus as hell looking.

Are there any wood grain steering wheels out there? I've looked hard and can't find any. If not, what other options do I have? I considered steering wheel cover but they are pretty cheesy looking from all the ones that I have seen...

All help is greatly appreciated!! thanks

have a local forum member help you bake your lights and paint them the right way, don't order cheap imitation ones as lerk said. as for the steering wheel, you could always upgrade to a racing wheel, but you'd lose the functionality and airbag, or you can try and pick one up out of a junk yard off another g35, but I would stray away from the fake woodgrain look.
