Hey guys,
Im working on converting my G37 journey base model to a sports model.
I have replaced the front bumper already and would like to install some aftermarket sideskirts.
I had to change the front bumper to add this lip, Does anyone know if the side rockers are identical for the journey to sports model? I would appreciate all of your help guys. Thanks

You will need

-sport bumper(you have)
-sport sideskirt
-splashguard
-sport brakes
-sport paddles
-sport 19


you will never be able to get a LSD or whatever though. You can only change the exterior parts

just cosmetics. trying to install sideskirts but they haven't been tested on the base/journey model, only the sports model. I would assume that the sides would be the same for sports and journey. Would you know anything about this? Thanks for the quick reply

hmmm so the OEM sports sideskirts(rockers) are different from the Jouurney? I called the Dealer and they couldnt give me a definite answer......

I'm a pro at this subject
Yup the sports sideskirt is different from the journey. If you go compare it, the sports side skirt is curvy and more defined. The journey is basically just flat and doesn't give the car a nice look.

thanks for the input! one last question though, If I were to switch my sides to the sports,will i run into any issues installing it? would the bolting points be different?
I appreciate all of your help guys

No you won't. The bolts and clip are the same.

Upgrading your bumper & sides without upgrading the sides will easily call you out as a wannabe! I'd definitely upgrade my brakes too

And 0% tint to hide your non-sport seats haha

Why not? Is it not possible to swap the differential?

It would be much cheaper to just sell your car and buy a sport.

^ expensive and not worth it.

true here!

Instead of making it look like the sports model, why don't you make it perform like it. Get a sport suspension, and add some performence mod to it.
