Proud Sedan Owner

Hey everybody! Just bought a 2004 Infiniti G35 Sedan with 64k miles on it. Previous owner had just bought new tires, brakes, oil change and 60k service recently. It's in really good condition. I have not yet done a thing to it yet besides get a tape-aux cable for my iPod. Couple things I wanna do soon is put my Sony HU in but waiting for a seller instead of paying 300$ for DD unit. I also want to lower it maybe just a little. It has OEM 17's and I love that look so no aftermarket wheels yet. Also maybe do a custom exhaust for more roars Here are some pics of my new baby, and yes I know. I need to restore my headlights lol

Congratulations, if you don't know it yet, you have the most desirable Nismo kit. Front bumper, sides and rear lip. Enjoy modding.

Thanks guys, I didn't know I had a nismo kit so yay! lol. I wasn't really into g's. I was mostly into hondas and all that stuff lol. But once I test drove this car and the price this guy brought it down to I had to get it lol, and when I say amazing price, I mean amazing price.. Only 9k! I restored my old cars headlights and it did some good but no perfect. This place by my house wants to charge 50 and they said it would look brand new after, But I kind of wanted to upgrade them to projector headlights, Are there any oem direct fits or do I have to retrofit them? I love the car so far, wash it once a week and wax every 2 weeks.

I would just plan to replace them. The haziness will just continue to come back, plus the more you buff them the more you take off the protective clear coat on the lens. They just wont ever look the same.

You can keep them looking good with regular buffing, check the detailing section. It's not a big job and you'll end up doing the same thing with replacements. Projector retrofit is a nice mod but also won't solve your hazing problem.
