Is the cutout for the camera hole and button on yours really ****ty? some pics i have seen it looks so bad.

 

Yeah for sure it's not great. Honestly it's the ONLY downside to this part. Otherwise it would be perfect. I'll take more photos tomorrow.

 

Thanks for the welcoming blnewt! Not sure why my last photos posted so blurry. This was my previous 2010 g37 base model with Nav. above.

 

 

A perfect setup in what some call the perfect city. Any side/frontal shots?

 

Just took this one today after a quick wipe down of the windows and wheels.

 

Here's a front shot from last year after I installed 5000k headlight and fog light bulbs and VLED switchbacks.

 

Yep, Furlow is the So Cal Rochester, or is Rochester the NY Furlow????

Looking great BTW!

 

The wheels were a coincidence lol, but I definitely copied his grill. Rochester's style and approach is very similar to mine, so I've leaned on his advice a couple of times.

 

It's been four years now, and even though the car is garaged, the Moonlight White on the grille is now noticeably more "white" and less pearl-white than the rest of the car. For that matter, so are the bumpers, although the difference is less so than the grille.

This is my second three-stage, pearl white car. And although my first one was only owned for 3.5 years after being bought new, at the end I was starting to notice the mismatch contrast on that car too.

Just saying, nothing is perfect.

Looking good, Furlow.

 

That is sexily perfect!

 

furlow - guessing you got the grill border painted after purchasing...about how much was that? I'm thinking about possibly painting my window trim the same as my car color

 

Yes but I did not order the black OEM grill, if that's what you mean. I used my chrome grill and they painted that. I can't remember exactly how much my paint shop charged me, but it was probably around $200 - $250. Not the cheapest, but this paint shop is a client of mine and they do really good work and I trust them.

Why not vinyl wrap the window trim to black or whatever color you want? Seems like it would be really expensive, and permanent, to paint it.

 

just trying to see what my other options would be - vinyl is at the top of the list but painting it cold be an option based on the price tag.
