In Cabin Replacement Filter, who needs one??

OK, I'm posting this because I know alot of you dirty bastards are driving around w/ the same 'in-cabin' filter for probably 30k+ miles. Anyways, while I have had my dash apart I figured I should change this since I'm at 21k miles now. I am gonna ask Dave at Rosenthal how much he can get us the in cabin filter for and maybe we can DIY, one of these weekends b4 winter hits. I think the dealer charges $90 to replace this filter element and it takes literally 15 min...maybe less to change. The filter costs anywhere from $15-30 I believe. So lets start a list of those who NEED a new in cabin filter and we'll go from there!! Dave, let us know what kinda pricing you can do on the filter!! Thanks!

Dave, for some reason everythingg35 seems to get infiniti/nissan parts the cheapest. I noticed that when I ordered my OEM front lip for the coupe a few months ago....not sure how they do it...they are an infiniti dealership in tuscon arizona..

sorry for the sarcasm, i'm sure they either buy in bulk or have a way of reproducing factory looking parts cheap

^lol, u really think so?!? actually you could be right. Now that you mentioned it, when I purhcased my OEM front lip 4 months ago, I noticed along the top a 'matte black' film/paint. This easily flaked off and kinda made the lip look weird b/c it didnt match the bumper or the lip (car is silver). after the body shop replaced my lip, i noticed this new lip didnt have the black/matte film or paint. This one was almost silver, almost matches car's paint but its unnoticeable. This lip is alot nicer looking..not sure though, but you could be right!

Now that you mentioned it I did notice it looked different from the cars that came with the lip already on. I didn't know why...
