2011 'foglights', do they all rattle when touched?

I know they just had to go and do something 'new' for 2011 and add the fog lights to a lower part of the car, away from the rest of the lights. But did they have to make them out of chome so they'll pick up crime so easily, and attach them so that they rattle when you touch them to clean them.

Personally, the 2011 front doesn't do it for me at all. I liked it when all the lights were housed in one unit - it was a cleaner look for the car. That's why I grabbed a 2010 coupe instead of waiting for the '11. I mean, the AWD + sport combo is enticing (I have the AWD, so no sport for 2010), but having said that, the new 15 spoke sport rims just don't look that nice in my books. I wish they could've kept the 2010s as they were, and simply added the option of the sport package to the AWD model. I love the 14" Akebonos, but the fogs and crap rims made me swing for the 2010. I don't even understand why the 2010 G37x coupes got 12.6" brakes, instead of the 13" that's on everything else, including the base AWD model for 2011.

Mine don't rattle. I just put in some yellow bulbs this evening and nothing like that at all.

you're a rare breed to not want separated foglights down there.

I think the new 2011 fog lights are great. I just put some nice HID's in them and it looks great.

The only bit of advice I can give everyone is to not get a CAI kit for 2011. Because this being the first year they put in fog lights in, the other year CAI kits will not fit. I had to take a while to modify mine to get everything to fit. What a pain.

No he's not. Or at least, I should say, he's not alone.

Thumbs up for separated fog lights. Car looks awesome. The front end of my Sedan with Sport Package looks great.
