I presume a A/C Filter = Cabin Air Filter on the G37?

Dumb question I know but I saw a video here in this forum on how to DIY instead of bending over and taking it from the dealer at $100 + Labor. If so, any suggestions on what and where to buy for at '08 G37S?

I also need engine air filters according to the dealer...they want $75 and wiper inserts for $42. I'm sure I can find it online for cheaper and replace them myself.

It's an outrage what they want to charge! I appreciate anybody pointing me to quality parts online that are not a ripoff. These dealers I swear...

Best,
G

Here's a nice guide on how to replace the cabin filter.

As for engine filters, you can go with your standard Wix filters (similar to oem) or you can go with the reusable ones such as HKS.

^^^ This. Go to your local Automotive store and get 2 air filters for about $30-40 and it takes 5 minutes to replace them.
The cabin filter can be a pain, but is still easy to do. Wiper blades are your choice between quality $20 ones and cheap $8 ones...
