If you do your own mod with "cost effective" way, there's nothing wrong with that. I'm sure any of you would do it to save a buck, if you had the proper instruction and material. The way OP worded is kind of insensitive in my opinion, since he's got the IPL kit and now the price is up, so he's happy. He may not meant it by happy due to he's got it, but happy because it's more exclusive?! but anyway, people would look at it the obvious way, which means he's happy he's got it, and haha!

Am I cheap if I use Plasti Dip to paint my emblems?

That's a whole different debate in itself my friend. In this case i believe it is, there altering the way the car looked aesthetically from its original state. However that's not the only thing that was mentioned, painting calipers was brought up as well, and like a previous person said we have all seen work like that, that's lasted and looks great.

I was not calling people getteo! I was saying it's Getteo to put the Aero/IPL front bumper on your car and have holes left with no Fogs! Just looks bad!

Maybe I am just getting old! but I work my *** off to pay for real parts and have them placed on my car in the correct way. I just tired of seeing G37 getting run down with cheap mods, people taking spry paint to there brakes! or putting on fake cheap looking parts made in china!

I'm sorry but going down to the local autoshop and buying cans of paint and painting your wheels looks very cheap and is very poor taste! or like putting your start button in the ash tray! or just all other cheap mods out there.

I just hate the fact I paid all this money for a car like this and to see it being pissed on by sorry very young people who just want a pocket rocket!!

I am happy the price went back up!! Infiniti needs to keep the Aero parts away from all the kids!

So if this makes you mad then, then you are the guy who just spray painted your wheels with $15 paint that will chip off in a few months!
If you wanted "exclusivity", da heck did you buy a NISSAN for?? LOL. Certain cars just aren't exclusive.

Im going to be very honest now. I totally get where you are coming from. But not all thoughts should be spoken or written. You got the IPL to be special... to have that special edition. But hey, if you wanted more exclusivity, you should have just modded an, "s" to run 11's in the quarter mile. Now THAT "exclusive".

Yeah. My car is all stock now and I still have that ghetto backup cam mounted under my rear bumper. That's just temporary and I have something coming soon. My car will be the ghettoest G around here.

Half of you have missed the whole point I was trying to make!

It does not matter! because the next Gen G will be out soon and the IPL will be out of reach for most.
