IPL new look ;)
Did couple things to my IPL last weekend. Got windows tinted, got back lights tinted 45% and got some emblems debadged and painted. Let me know what you think about me just leaving IPL badge and infiniti badge on the back!

Looks pretty good. I would match the IPL emblem to the Infiniti one personally. And I'm not sure how crazy I am about the tinted tails. I would have gone GTR style if I were to tint them. Windows and everything else look great though man. Keep up the good work!

Looks great dude! Love the color of your car. tinted tails look waaay better from the side than those bright red ones! Have you thought about debadging the infiniti emblem?

Not to sound mean or anything.
Guys stop letting him rice out a 50k car. Tinting your $1k tale lights is a no no. Also the debadging the back and having the Infiniti embale only black looks rice. Also painting over the IPL colors is a big no no! The point of the red and purple colors is to celebrity Infiniti F1 redbull and Infiniti F1 team! Not for you to mark over with cheap black plant! Over all the back looks like rice

Car looks good, bro! Congrats on the house as well.
As far as debadging:
"rice" is a little strong. I always thought the origin of debadging was taking off emblems that meant less than the best model. I've seen guys take off the 328i because it wasn't an M3 or stuff on civics because they are Hondas (which has no performance value), etc. I understand taking off the " I N F I N I T I " because it's kind of redundant lol. But I don't understand taking off the "G37" because it helps balance out the IPL badge and I darn sure would NEVER take off the INF badge. Why pay all this money to take off what you paid for?
Somewhere in America there is a guy who is taking the "IPL" badge off his car lol.
It's just my opinion. But at the same time, we wonder why even INFINITI doesn't respect this car enough to give it some REAL power/performance. Well sometimes we don't help the cause with some of the crazy stuff we do.
Anyways, can't wait to see it with a drop and wheels...

Well, I ment more of him blacking out only the infiniti and then painting over the IPL colors. The BMW M3 guys go and buy BMW Black OEM M badges. And it's done the right way, with M colors still showing.
Maybe it will look better after the car does not look stock anymore. I don't like doing anything to the back of a car when it's still stock looking..
