Help and Advice

So...i have recently got my g37 coupe 2008, and i have already done some minor customizations to it. But im confused about the front bumper, side skirt, rear bumper part. Is it better if i add an entire body kit to it or should i just change it part by part? How do i aviod fitment issues? Cuz i really wanted to change my OEM bumpers. And also for the headlights, i have seen those halo lights that looks amazing, but i have heard from my fds that its better to change the entire housing instead of just customizing the core partt....Does anyone have any advice on these customizations? thank you very much !

A lot of people on here like the ipl/aero oem bodykit, it looks nice with wheels and a drop.
Google Sewell Infiniti parts and you can get them for a good price color matched to your car. That's how to get the best fitting parts with oem paint.

No company makes a replacement headlight for this car, check out 180customs on the site they do some amazing headlight work and can make it look however you choose!

Hope this helps and happy modding!

Welcome to the MyG37.com!

OP Search first for pictures, meet local car groups and see if there is a after market bodykit you like.

Then try to get which style you like better and to get the one that fits your style and your budget.

Lot of members get IPL OEM body kit beacuse it looks lot better than our 08 body kit and is sooooooo cheap and comes painted(unless you have certain color that infiniti has raised the price on). But don't worry just get cheap one and get it paint match, it will still come out cheaper.

No after market body kit will be perfect fitment, OEM is the best, JDM high end ones will fit almost good as OEM, other brands you will need a good body shop with skills to make it fit great~.

And remember you need to get the body kits painted and put on by a shop.... another $$$ going out... budget the cost. Get full kit or one by one. Or look for one on our For Sale threads.

Good luck and MOD on!

Headlight mods search for member on here that does it near you.... if you don't have anyone near you....you need to ship it out to a member or shop.

Remember shop will cost more than the member.... and search ~~~~

I will tell you to go to Raul if you are in west coast area or my headlight guy if you are in VA/MD/DE/NJ/PA area. ^^

Advice on the angel halo lights...I got mine done by umnitza in California and it was worth the shipping and the wait! Look into it if you want. I highly recommend them! And about the body kit, I was looking for one myself. I have the CV3 Vossen rims Dropped on Eibach springs and I was wanting a nice kit for my g37. I will look into the IPL for sure.
