G37 Illuminated Kick Plates

Waste of money or is it a worthwhile investment? I'm just wondering whether it's gonna get all scratched up or whether I should just leave it the way it is in my '09 G37x coupe?

Any thoughts? Thx

I like mine. If you don't already have them (i.e. from the factory), it's probably a waste.

Damn, I wish I had the dealership install it! Especially now that you're saying it's not worth getting installed. Oh well, sucks for me

Thx for the feedback!

Yeah, I did buy the car and plan on keeping it for a very long time so maybe I should invest in the kick plates. I'll put that off until summer time though given the recent purchase of my ride. Seems like most of you like it so it must look decent.

worth it if you buy with the car. They really look good and make a nice impression at night.
