So I ordered a 370GT badge for my trunk, but it was for the coupe and a lot smaller than the G37S badge that is on my car. I sent it back and I assume the badge for the sedan is bigger, but zero images come up when I put in the part number. Apparently the coupe badge is a lot more popular. Does anyone know if the sedan 370GT badge is larger than the one for the coupe?
Are you going to do the Nissan Skyline rebadging? Wouldn't you need to get a Nissan Skyline engine cover and steering wheel cover as well? Maybe even floor mats as well?
Sweet! I might take that off of your hands if you don't need it.

Way ahead of you. I have a Z1 intake plenum and intakes so the engine cover is gone. I will probably order the steering wheel cover next. The floor mats are tricky because they say "Skyline" which I think is dumb because the side sills will say "Skyline." The other issue is that they are for RHD cars. I have carpet samples from a company that makes custom floormats and I plan to get the front mats embroidered with "370GT" in silver.

I thought about that, but the one that is in the Skyline does not have any emblem so what's the point? I figured I would keep the original clock since the fuji is so small. That along with the fuji in the nav display screen when you start the car will remind me how the car started out. I actually thought about getting the software to change the emblem at start up, but then I realized everything would probably be in Japanese.
Will you also get the Skyline spec taillights or just keep the US version? Maybe even the Skyline fender turn signal lights as well?
The tail lights look exactly the same to me. That's probably the only part of the G37 that makes me think of a Skyline- the circular design of the tail lights. Do you have a picture of the tail lights you are talking about?
JDM tails have an amber inner lens. It's pretty subtle, but definitely something you notice once you see it. Not worth swapping one for the other, IMO.
There's probably some law being satisfied either there or here that no one cares about except manufactures adhering to code.

Oh that's it? Nope, not changing tails for that. I bet at least 95% of the people on the road around here have no idea what a Skyline even is. This is a mod just for the tiny percentage of us car enthusiasts who will know what that means when they see it and prompt them to take a closer look. (And mainly for me so I can try to convince myself it is a new car to help me be patient for all of the cool new cars coming out in the next year or two.)
Nice!
