Feel free to post pics and opinions about your McGards in that thread. That's what its for, and I'd like to read your thoughts on them.

It's a simple look, but strong and two-piece. And the price was agreeable.

Took me a while to figure it out. Here's the thread.

You're welcome. I hope it works out well enough for the both of us. Sight-unseen purchases and all that jazz.

In for pics of Rochester's slammed sedan.

Edit: I had the McGard set on my old 350z for years and the fit/finish held up nicely. Whereas my Rays lug nuts have faded, turned light blue, and the edges are all worn from taking the wheels on and off..

Yes and no. In all my years of living in Rochester NY, I have never, ever seen the pothole situation as bad as it is right now, this year.

It's pretty scary out there.

BTW - I laugh every time I see your nick. I just said pebkac a few days ago to the sales engineer that works with my guys, (in reference to our admin having excel "problems",) and after being taken aback that a salesguy knew the acronym (admittedly, I'm in tech!) he cracked up.

So I'm really looking to switch into a Sport bumper for my sedan and I'm trying to work out all the numbers.

Brad I've quoted you from another sport bumper conversion thread:

1, (2)16, (2)17, and 20. This is for a 2012 but I believe they should be the same, it won't let me enter a 2013 for some reason
2012 INFINITI G37 Parts - Discount Infiniti Parts | Genuine, OEM Infiniti Parts | Infiniti Accessories | Huge Instock Inventory
Your reference to 2x of #17 (fog lamp bezel) - can this be used from the non-sport bumper? Also you didn't speficically reference the lower center grille. Does this come included with the bumper?

Anyone feel free to chime in - I'm trying to take advantage of my dealer's 30% off Promotional Offer because they're only charging me $40 for shipping it to my house..... There's no way I'm turning that down.

It's a computer tech thing. Problem exists between keyboard and computer.
