WooHoo. I'm a big fan of both of these mods, so I can't wait to hear your impressions on both. Good choice!

I'm doing my best to space out buying tires for the coupe 19s I just picked up, but I'm finding a set of 245/40 and 275/35 Continental ExtremeContact DWs for $806 shipped...decisions.

Blue start button!

I have one spare button, and if anyone wants I can do it in any combo of red / blue for you.

Excited, eh? I think we can tell. Those sways will be a welcome mod, and the axle-back from Tanabe looks much better than OEM.

That's a nice price for quality shoes, you could do much worse.

Any of you guys still have the OEM front license plate plastic mount ? Someone backed into my car and broke my plate + mount.

I might have it somewhere. My front bumper isn't drilled, so they just left that for me in the trunk. Not sure if I would have thrown it away, though...

What did you bring it in for? Just an inspection so you could see what needed to be done?

Yeah, that's what I thought too. Tirebuyer.com is definitely cheap, although the shipping is to a local shop for install, the shop is ~$90 for mount and balance. I'll need to call ahead and see what they charge to put the TPMS on, too.

I hit 75k km (46k miles) and figured Id take it in for full lubrication, and a closer look by someone who deals with exclusively infiniti. My mechanic didnt even see the CV boot leak.... But yeah, just brought it in for an inspection, and did an oil change while I was at it. Most expensive oil change of my life lol.

68 for mobile 1 synthetic, 10 for oil filter and 2 for gasket. Then the Labour and lubrication service. Ended up at 148. Canadian though. Still crazy by local standards.
