Hoping to buy this weekend
Well now.... while you're at the tint shop, give this idea some consideration. Go look at the rear bumper on your car, and observe the sculpted lower section that gently wraps around the edges. That's the rear diffuser section of the bumper, except that there's no actual diffuser there, just an indented section of the polyurethane. Now you could go and buy a plastic or carbon fiber diffuser and mount it, but that can be expensive, and visually busy, IMO. However, on a glossy black car, imagine how nice that area would look if it were simply vinyl-wrapped in flat black, for a subtle contrast.
Just a thought.
And one that can set your car apart from every other G37 in your area, without being obnoxious.
Just a thought.

I did not know he made one. So I retract my last comment knowing that there is a perfectly cut piece of vinyl. I would only use his kit, though, as Ive seen tons of great pics of his work.

blah blah blah, regrets and lessons learned.
The important thing I learned was that I really like the look, and would like to have it painted next time around, rather than wrapped. Or perhaps someone will come up with a diffuser that I actually like, and go that route.To the OP's car, I really do think flat-black (charcoal) would look great against his glossy black G.

Yes, Bluebat... that's a good DIY route. I was originally going to go with Bluebat, but there turned out to be a local vinyl decal shop not 2 miles from my house. Sadly, they butchered the edges, and I had to go to a Tint shop for corrections.
