Thanks, jfisher. Welcome to the forum.

Beltline is wrapped in gloss black vinyl. But I left the window trim as-is. Kind of a different look.

Yep. Body color on the perimeter of the grille, gloss black metallic on the slats and the inner & sides of the Fuji.

Car's looking amazing, John. One of the cleanest G sedans out there for sure. And it looks like you got her sitting nice an level all around now!


Quick question regarding your headlights. Does your car have the Sport headlights with the slightly darker "black chrome" housing? From the pictures it looks like you have the standard chrome housings, but I thought all 6MT's came with the Sport headlights... just curious.

I actually like this look. Props for being original! Have you thought about finishing off the look by blacking out the entire side view mirror housing? I think that would look really good.

Yes, all 6MT's came with the Sport Package headlights, which have a slightly darker chrome housing than the non-Sport. It's so hard to tell, unless they are side-by-side.

Those are the original headlights. I'd be lying if I said I didn't want to do something creative here, too. Someday. It's not high on my list, however.

I did think about it once. Then I got over it, and haven't thought about it since. There's a risk and a temptation for white cars to go full-Oreo. I've been trying to resist that.

Just washed the car and figured it was a good time to take some photos. I have had the car since last December and these are really the first time I am actually taking photos of the car not using a cell phone.

yes sir. I would've been the first one to install them back in February/March when I got them but backed out when I found out that they weren't direct swap, while the Type N(Nissan) ones are direct swap for G37 coupes... but then I kept waiting and waiting after speaking to TRS reps several times until their "local" guy does a test fit and attempts to install them to see how difficult it is to install them with necessary modifications... They deemed it easy enough not to bother with a direct swap bracket for G37 sedans, which would be MUCH better, and wouldn't require cutting, dremel and having issues with perfect even light beam adjustments given there was no way to use a screw through there... maybe one day they'll make the freaking brackets that will make those a direct swap.

Keep in mind I'm very **** about my lights and the even output so yeah I might be over exaggerating a little but , well I had to lower one all the way down and raise the other all the way up so they're almost even, but I haven't had much time to play around with those , so this is not definite, I gotta adjust the zip ties lol

BTW it sucks that they look yellow in the pictures oh well... the color is actually very crips pure white 5000k.
