Interesting.. and I thought maybe my dealer was trying to pull a fast one on me :P

Anyway, I think the rear splashes look good, as they seem to compliment the aggressive side rockers on the sport model and kind of finish off the tail end which looks a little high and plain without it. The fronts dont seem to do a whole lot tho.

Its almost got all the elements of an 'oem body kit' -- i think the only missing piece is a front lip to go with!

I added splash guards to my G35 and they made a big difference. When I ordered my G37S, they were a must.

saying they come with the sports is very incorrect. it is not part of the package. so while they may have been on the car you for sure paid extra for them. as far as installing them after. you must drill into the car in a few areas to add them...

I installed the front and rear set on my G35 and it was really easy to do (you do have to drill holes). I'm sure the ones for the 08's are just as easy to install.

i was not saying they are hard to install just pointing out the fact you will have to drill into your car at certain places.

That's cool. I just wanted to point out they were easy to install just in case someone was curious.

I picked up a set on Monday for $146 but haven't gotten around to installing them yet. Maybe I'll have time tomorrow afternoon after I get out of class, but the instructions looked pretty simple, except for having to take the rear wheels off to install the rear splash guards since I'm lazy
