hey, when you debadged yours did you have an outline of infiniti and g35? how did you remove the dirty outline after you took the adhesive off? I debadged mine tonight but i parked under a light at a store and checked it out and now where the letters were the color is a different shade of red? is that because my red is faded from years of sun or what? how would i fix that?

I have a slight ghost image where the G35 was previously. This also happened when I debadged the INFINITI letters. My car has been detailed numerous times since the removal and it's difficult to notice a difference now. I expect the same with the G35 as I only have a slight image. I have very little fade on my paint (except the side mirrors) even though it's outdoors in FL. Car gets a complete detail every six months though it needs to be clayed at this point.

the side mirrors and the lower body sills aren't clear coated. That's whey they fade.

My car has been garaged other than about an average of 10 hours per week and still has a touch of paint fade. Red oxidizes very easily.

Yup and the sad thing is the driver side mirror was repainted and cleared but the body shop didn't complete the passengers side. I was so pissed I wouldn't leave the car (long story). So know I have one faded.

Is it all colors that were not clear coated regarding mirrors and sills? I know LR was one for sure.

Danny, I'd like to think so but I have a huge work project so it will most likely be the following week. I need to swap out the extended lugs on the H&R spacers as well before putting them on. I also need to elongate the hoel on the Toe bolt that the shop screwed up. Need to get it all right before the alignment.

When do all your parts come in?
