I've had it for over a decade and it's saved me from countless tickets. You have to kind of pay attention to the directional arrows and counter, especially in the city on routes you frequently drive, but I otherwise have no complaints. On the interstate, it's an absolute bloodhound, sniffing out radar sometimes a mile out.
Body no, guts and technology, yes. You can always send it back in for a software update, which is something I need to do some day.
Damn. Do it sooner than later. Apparently because mine is so old, it costs $289 + shipping. It's almost a complete internal redesign apparently at this point.
Those look great, DFS! Nice to see someone else rocking the honeycomb projector lenses. Now you just need to swap out those ugly plastic turn signal lenses for some honeycomb etched lenses as well!

Thanks and that was my initial plan, however I would had 2 choice is how to fit the new projector lens in the turn signal location. 1 would of been to buy a new projector housing and modify it to fit, that would have also needed a ballast to run that new projector and this being my 1st time, was not ready to make that leap of faith. The other option which I seriously contemplated was buying the "Dummy mini H1 projectors" and then the new etched lens. But again the dummy projector would need some modification to fit our headlights. Maybe in another life or somewhere wayyyyy down the road I might make it happen

Completely understand, DFS. I didn't do my headlight work myself (don't trust myself with the paint work), so I'm not sure what kind of modification the turn signal lenses took to install. But I just installed Triton V3 switchbacks with them so not need for an additional ballast or wiring.
FML that looks amazing! who did the work? If theres no ballast then its not a true projector, however they may have used the dummy one which is 100% great and would confirm the exact look I wanted. dam, no way im opening them back up. I'll just live with it
Good Afternoon, Ladies and Gentlemen, today I just installed my GTR Button.
So apparently, the previous owner did work on the inside LEDs and kept the amber color of the GTR but OEM push-to-start button. So i never had that white LED lighting! 🤣 I've never noticed! Ah well, ill solder new LEDs, eventually. red for LOCK and green for ON.
Spoiler yesterday. Removed emblem and letters and did emblem today. Letters are getting spray painted. I tried to wrap starting with the G and it was a pain in the sack. I might just do the front face of the letters in the carbon fiber after I spray them black.

Very NICE 2G! Yes, who did the work? East coast shop?

Yeah, it's basically a dummy projector that uses a real glass projector lens but retails the OEM socket, so it works perfectly with the V3 Triton switchbacks that I installed.

Thanks guys! I actually had them done by OneEighty in NY. I've known those guys for years through the forums and trust their work. It was on the expensive side but the work they do and how quickly I got the lights back was definitely worth it. I actually talked to several shops that specialize in headlights here in the L.A. area, but none of them have much experience with Infiniti headlights and most couldn't really do what I wanted them to do.
YES! lol another one. Now I dont feel alone. See guys, DIP has come a really long way, its not for just ricers anymore. The metallic and gloss finishes you can get are fantastic.
Coated the seats in leatherique and covered them with plastic last night. Going camping this weekend so the G can sit for about 3 days. Hopefully that will put a dent in the wrinkles. So far I have been pretty disappointed with this product.
