I've been able to use my new lights on scene a few times recently and I snapped a pic or two with my cell of them in action.
I also grabbed this pic on my way home from a photo shoot I did at a car show.

The other day I decided to order some gloss black 3M vinyl wrap to do my roof. I figured I would give it a try instead of paying someone else to do it. It's not flawless, but it looks pretty good to me. Here's some pics:

I've also been toying around with some ideas for the grille. The one I have was poorly painted by a previous owner and is chipping. I did some quick and dirty photoshop of a few variations. Since I would like to rebadge it as its JDM sibling I used the Nissan burger in these mockups.
Badgeless with chrome:
Badgeless with chrome smoked:
With Nissan badge:
Smoked Nissan and smoked chrome:
I also did a variation where I put the "370GT" badge in place of the Nissan lettering. Not sure on this one, or if it would even fit, but here it is:
*EDIT*
I threw together a couple with the Infiniti logo as well:

The mesh itself I found on eBay. I tried to get something as close to the hexagon pattern of the Aero/IPL bumper as I could. What I found has the same height to the cells, but the length is about half. The eBay mesh is 1"L x .5"W, and the OEM mesh is 2"L x .5"W. I decided to do the mock-ups to get an idea of how it could look.
Here's a link to it for anyone interested: Universal Black ABS Plastic Racing Honeycomb Hex Mesh Grill Spoiler Bumper Vent | eBay

I've come across a post on a G37 Facebook group from a company called OEMassive. Looks like they're going to be releasing "GT-R style" headlights for our coupes. They've got a few pics on their page of them. I think I may get them but I'm still not sure. I threw together a quick Photoshop of them on my car. The quality of the source image was pretty horrible as it was a screencap from their video, but it gives a general idea of how they'd look.
Here's the video:

Today I FINALLY got my front windows tinted. I've had this thing for a year and a half now, I'm not sure why I waited so long lol. Here are some quick cell phone pics of before, during, and after.
Looks much better now!
