Picked it up today! **Updated w/ Pics**
Picked up my IP on Graphite 6MT G37 Sport with Nav/Premium/Splash Guards...I'm reaaaally happy with the car.
Sorry I don't have pics yet. I just got back from practicing driving it around, as this is my first manual transmission car (I know how, but I'm not that great at it...managed to stall it out a few times). I'll try to take some pics this weekend.
Nav and voice recognition are confusing as hell. I'm off to study the instruction booklets.

Finally waxed it today and was able to do a few minor things to it. You guys weren't kidding about the passenger city light being a PITA. The PIAA LEDs look realllly good though, so my mangled hand was worth it. Some pics...

Congrats on the new car man. I love the daytime shots, very nice. The parking lights look great without the yellow tint of the stock bulbs. I see you already debadged it. Your plate light looks very blue in the photos, might attract the wrong kind of attention by 5-0.

You replaced the City Light? Is that the small tiny bulb in the Headlight? What Bulb or LED DId you replace it with, and What other Lights are in the Front? Fogs and headlight? Is it hard to change Headlight or Fogs?
Also what lights did you put in your license plate light?

Thanks! They're PIAA Super LEDs in white.
Its actually camera lighting. Here's a better picture I took of a direct shot in the headlight housing. They're the same LEDs in the rear.

More LEDs are coming this week to finish up with the interior.
Changing the rear was easy as cake. Fronts were a pain in the butt. The fogs are held in with some clasp mechanism and the parking lights are just straight hard to get to. Eitherway, you'll need to take out the intake filters in order to get barely enough room to switch the lighting out. If you're doing the HID headlights, without a doubt you'll need to come in through the wheel well. I brought my car to my buddy's shop this morning in case the intake filter route didn't work and I would need to put in on a lift...luckily, it didn't come to that.

They're LEDs. I don't like using regular bulbs because of the blue hue during the day time. I might just be picky though.

So Let me get this Right, There is 3 Lights in the Front
City Light - Parking Light 168 Wedge Bulb
Fog Lights - H1 Bulbs
HID Headlights - XENON D2S Projector Bulbs
Now What type of variations to do you have?
When you turn the Headlight on, can You leave the Fogs off?
or Can you Leave the Fogs on Daytime and have Headlights off?
And when does the City light Turn on?
