These headlights are being done by JP, I can't remember his handle... I think it's JPSBLACKG37s?
Alright so I'm not a patient man lol... made my own all 4 AWG grounding kit. Big Thanks to Black Betty and AZG37 for their DIY grounding kit threads! Very happy with the turnout and definitely feel as though there is an improvement in my shifting no more lag in response when manually shifting. Great easy mod! Love this forum!

Thankfully everyone was able to walk away from this with just a couple scrapes and bruises.

Hope everyone's Memorial Day weekend was better than mine.
I can't tell from that pic...which convertible did she hit?

The road we were traveling on prior to turning is 45 and approaching the intersection to turn right she mistook the brake for the accelerator. They have decided total it out, they picked it up yesterday and had me remove everything including plates and registration.

Hopefully, right now it's just a waiting game with the insurance.

G/L with the repairs or the replacement if it comes to that and hopefully you'll have smooth insurance dealings.
Thanksfully we are all ok. Thanks, now just waiting on the insurance to get back to me with the total loss settlement. Car was picked up yesterday and she stated it could take up to 7 business days.

Just random thoughts:

Been wanting a G for awhile, my last car got totaled by way of hail & flood damage so I replaced it with 2013 G37x sedan. I've had it for almost two weeks and I absolutely love it.

It's back at the dealership for a small paint issue. My loaner is a 2014 Q50 and although it's very nice, I miss my G!! I've read (on this site) the G is more of a driver's car and I 100% agree.

I love reading this forum in my spare time, but it's overwhelming! Wheels, exhaust, trim.. transmissions.... firmware flashes.... blowers??? The vast amount of info and personal experience here is making my head swim. But I love it. Thanks for providing the site.

Blowers? LOL. Not a lot people mod their sedan with a supercharger, but it happens. Doing it right usually exceeds the relative value of the car.

Welcome to the site. Buy a set of swaybars for that X. Do it now. GO!

thanks man, I need the direction.

I can actually afford swaybars! Unlike that sweet GTHAUS/Meisterschaft exhaust. I've listened to those videos prolly a dozen times already

I'm with you, my G is at the dealer overnight and I'm in a Q. Personally I think they finished the car in the morning and are just out cruising in my G....

Had a good convo with the service manager today, they're covering a brake switch replacement on the house. Then started talking with their best tech, i need to buy him a beer or two as I work through this mirror project I think.

As Rochester said, sways first absolutely. Huge difference on the X.
