are the grills for the coupes and sedans the same?

would be interested in a group buy if it is or if they are flexible with the purchase

I have been in contact with ionicdynamics in the US and they don't do a emblem less grill for the 370 or G37 as they call it.

They will be doing one soon though and will let me know.

Dang, ah well worth the wait, their stuff looks pretty damn impressive!

Did you happen to come across their ducktail they do for the G35? Was keen as on one of them when I had one haha

considering buying this one, painting it in a gloss black

and debadging the infiniti badges on the rear

assuming it fits my 2009 kv36 although it says it's for a pv36 g35

Post pics if you do. I was considering it also, but more out of desperation. The top & bottom rabbit teeth put me off. Why did they have to make it like that ffs?

Yeah looks bit odd. But I guess if you paint it black it'll blend in more. I'll be talking to someone later about cutting the emblem insert out and fabricating a replacement piece...surely it won't cost as much as the grill ...

My eyes hurt...

Hey Guys, Always hated the big Hamburger on the front of my 370GT.

Swapping to Infiniti badging doesn't appeal to me either.

So, I did this.

Basically I modified the Nissan Hamburger.

I used a boot emblem & stacked it.

Cheers.

Just to clear up the whole infiniti/nissan badge swap saga.. Today I confirmed that the Nissan V36 coupe and Infiniti G37 coupe front grille badges are indeed the same fitment and can be swapped without modification, based on the fact that I received a Nissan V36 coupe midnight grille and fitted an Infiniti coupe badge to it. :)

Where did you get it???

Yahoo Japan, secondhand.

It came from here originally. http://model.auto-style.jp/v36coupe/CMS20251150011/

Fit is okay, but not as good as oem.

Fixings leave a bit to be desired, but will do the job.

Fiberglass, so quite a bit heavier than oem.

All in all, fairly typical aftermarket product.

Not Bad.

      Rusty roof repair

      Nah that is not actually a lot. Just painting my GTR frontend and the little bits to make sideskirts/nismo flare pieces work correctly/fit on the sedan/mount up correctly came to about $7000. Is it a lot? Sure. None of this is economical. Economy would be shelling the car and buying a 2010 Corolla to commute in. The perspective of all of this is different.

      I don't see any issues here. I've been saying all along this is a big job, the price reflects that.  When the car comes back perfect I'm sure it will feel like money well spent.

      Remember, take original quote. Double it. Then add a bit more. It's how any project goes.

      Rusty roof repair

      By PranK · Posted

      So, I started this repair and got as far as "fixing" the holes with some fibreglass. God all those years working on boats came back quickly. I decided I'd reach out to some rust guys just to see what they would say about it. I came across a guy about 40 mins away and went to see him. He said the windscreen needs to come out, that there might be some more bits around the windscreen and he'd quote them at the time. But his quote was $300 to remove and replace windscreen and $3k for the damage he can see. He said he could respray the roof for $1200 and the bonnet for another $800 (somebody has previously rattle canned it, its horrendous). This is $5300 + any small additional bits. It's a lot, I get that and the name of one of my fave youtube channels 'Not Economically Viable' comes to mind.  I'm not being financially rational, but I've taken him up on the quote. He's opening a new shop in November with more room, so we're waiting for that. I'll leave the currently missing headliner out until then. I'm looking forward to it being fixed and having the paint looking nice again (lots of clear coat issues on the roof too). / flame suit on.
