They look like nicely designed trim pieces. I'm not big into CF, but appreciate the look, and the border edge, and the little NISMO logo is something we all recognize as uniquely Nissan. The cost is high, but that's irrelevant to assessing how something looks, and value is personal. Overall, it's an interesting item that I never heard of before until your comment and photos, and I'm happy for you that you're all jazzed up with something new. We all know how that feels.
But I don't actually like them on the car. If they were gray CF instead of black, and without the NISMO logo, I'm sure I'd feel differently.

Nice pieces and price there, Mike. I almost bought those when I was at my home country 2 summers ago. Holding them in my hands, I must say, the quality is top. The only thing stopped me from buying back then was the NISMO logos, they gave me this Honda vtec stickers feel. Regardless, I'm amazed you got them that price from the "gray import market", my dealership priced them at 150 USD at the time. Funny how they were the hottest accessory for the Infinity Juke in my country.
About the power folding mirrors, that is one of my G wish list item. My friend 370gt sedan has those and they are kick@$$. And the Carwings features........

I guess when all you have in the design toolbox is a protractor and a ruler, this..
Here's Why The Lexus RX Was The Biggest Loser In New York
That design (or lack thereof), is not going to age well and will be relegated to "that sharp razor angles everywhere thing" in the annals of automotive design history.

What exactly are the Carwings???

Thx bro. I was planning to bring a set of mirrors over but I left them at home since I found out they will not work on the U.S spec car without modifications. Those connectors are bigger than what we have here plus extras wires. And then the camera would be on the wrong side also.
Car wings is a nav feature that connects with the mobile phone. It allows you to send and read messages on the nav screen. Plus it connects you to a live operator who give you travel guidance with real time traffic and weather update. We were driving to the beach and my friend asked the Carwings lady for a rest stop address that was not registered in the nav. When she overheard our conversation that we needed gas, she gave us the location of a gas station with cheaper gas and complimentary car wash. That's luxuryyy

Hey guys! I've been looking into getting Eibach Pro lowering springs for my G sedan, but as some of you know, I have a G25. Is there going to be a difference in weight or anything that will cause the springs to lower my car more/less than they would lower a 37? If anyone has any different suggestions for a 25 please let me know! Can't be too low due to craptastic Maine roads though, thanks!

I just wrote and deleted about four G25 questions.

That's awesome, I do need Carwings it turns out!
They are bigger, the same connectors as the FX has. An option is to rebuild a set of 'vert mirrors (or have Connor do them) and go that route. Which was my initial plan that I've devited from a bit so far. May still go full circle on that route, trying to decide.

Any day at all.
Most of the time, he prefers to keep the car all day, to fit work in on his time. But I'd really like to be there for this install. We'll see what happens. While there, I'm planning on showing him the bushings I customized for the rear springs, and the Vert Cradle Braces... intended for a follow-up install on those parts, and to re-check the fitment on the catback after it settles in.
Meanwhile, it's getting warmer out, so the VOSSENS go back on the car this weekend. And I can get that roofwing installed soon sometime in the next few weeks. Along with popping off the fog trim rings and replacing them with the ones I bought new and had painted this winter. And I'd like to clay & wax the car overall... that's a given. And get the leather interior treated properly with Leatherique.
So much fun stuff! I just need to be patient, is all.
