Not entirely, no. I don't think you can order the kit directly from Infiniti. Everyone that's purchased this has bought from an Infiniti dealership on eBay. You might be able to buy each piece individually from Infiniti, but that would probably be hella expensive.

In that link, you would need the paddle shifters (7), the new trim pieces (1). There are 3 new trim pieces left, right, and bottom- you don't have to remove top trim piece and it fits new pieces.

You'll also need the screws/nuts previously mentioned in the thread.

Edit: Okay, now I see why you get a new upper column cover even though the old part is the same and does not need to be replaced. You can only order all 4 column covers together (part #1 on this diagram) http://www.infinitipartsusa.com/part...layCatalogid=0 and not as separate pieces.

Installed the paddle shifters today. Everything went very smoothly and they work just as advertised. Thanks for all the insight and a very thorough DIY.

Good to know even the base model G37 is wired for paddle shifters.

Just buy the wife a pair of shoes or something nice when you buy a mod for your G. It helps keep her happy (and you too).

To everyone who ordered the paddles from OC Infiniti, did you guys do it through Ebay?
If yes, did you bid on the item and how much did it go for? Or did you pay the buy it now price.

Also, the paddles for 2 door are the same as for the sedan correct?

I have looked a couple times and every time, on OC Infiniti's eBay store they only have the black paddles and trim. Haven't found anyone with the stone colored trim pieces, or am having search issues?

Can someone take a picture of the trim pieces with a manual steering column. I am wondering if I can cut my existing trim pieces to fit the paddles. Apparently they do not make trim pieces for the manual steering column in tan.

Yes, the paddle kit from OC Infiniti listed on e-bay fits both sedans and coupes. There was no bid option on eBay, it was just a straight purchase ($245).

That looks awfully close to my trim color. Hmmm...when I saw the Tan color in the description, I didn't even look. Thanks.
