I've been looking through pages and pages of pictures, I can't seem to find one red sedan. I'm in looking to buy a 09 G37xS it's red and I'm trying to get some ideas on what I can do. I will say... there are a ton of killer looking G's in this thread, I can see my wallet getting thin quickly.

Too bad you don't want a 2013 Moonlight white G37S RWD ;P
Little side note, my G is a CPO - Lease vehicle purchased by me in October 2016 at Infiniti of Clarendon Hills (Chicago, IL) with 19,900 miles, now around 24ishK miles.
I have pretty much completed all my tweaks and mods to my G that I wanted - performance and cosmetically. Below are some pics and a vids of the exhaust and the mod/tweak list.
**All pics were cropped to show close up of vehicle and ONLY include an auto-enhance on the photo based on current brightness etc (cloudy day in chicago), no manual filter applied to photos**
Cosmetic:
30% tints (4 windows)
Smooth Matte Black paint - stock rims, grille, chrome spoiler lip, chrome window trim and exhaust tips.
Performance:
Stillen Gen3 CAI
Stillen Catback Exhuast.
Nice job Brandon, IMO removing the Infiniti & G37 badging and leave just the logo in the same black as your trim would complete the look, and it also makes detailing SO much easier.

blnewt - thanks for the opinion! I do agree. I was planning on only keeping the front and rear Infiniti badge.

Not bad for some starter mods, but IMO matte black on a car like this makes the whole car look cheap. Just be careful not to overdo it, the window trim and the chrome pieces look fine though. I think when you get some aftermarket wheels and kill the wheel gap, it will look much better.
I must say that I'm impressed with how original you made your car look on a low budget (besides the Stillen intake and exhaust). I've been wondering what the stock 17's would look like painted black so I could do it on the interim until the rubber on mine is ready to be replaced. I like the look and may paint mine gloss black in the future. IMO I think the badges in the rear may look better with the black to match as well. Overall I give you the thumbs up for what you've done so far.
^^^^ same question. I want to blackout all my chrome -- dont want plastidip or cheap paint. I tried vinyl wrap and failed twice myself. Cant see spending 300-400 for someone else to do it. Rather keep it alone at that point ha.
Waiting for a Gloss Black style of plastidip or paint for plastic that actually finishes nicely.

Thank you, is this over doing it to you? I'm just curious, I was never about what would make it look too much etc.

QuinnDEskimo thank you, i did all this rather in a tight timeframe. I may go with removing the badging (only to keep the front and rear INFINITI logo badge). The stock rims painted or plast dip (your preference) look nice, mine are painted. Thank you again!!
