CF rear valence!!! can't wait for that. The hood I'm not really feeling... that spoiler is probably the best aftermarket spoiler that I've seen from the others.

Within the last 3 years, Alot of people have jumped into the Aftermarket tuning market and have taken High Quality JDM parts and replicated it with the goal of offering it at the lowest price possible. Corners are cut, materials of less quality are used and sooner or later, there are replicas.
You can see for example TS (Top Secret) style hood for half the price or more. You save a lot of money on the purchase, but then the fitment is way off, and then the money to not only modify it to make it fit but to maintain it will end up costing you just as much as you would have spent getting the original part. I know a friend who got a urethane kit of a popular style body mod. Urethane is ok if you use OEM Quality materials, but That type of OEM Quality in Urethane is SUPER expensive, way more then the urethane kits you see for import cars. but polyurethane as a whole warps over time, and heat breaks it down.
So down the line, the look deteriorates. then you have to do continually fix it to keep it looking like the day you installed it. So yea, Urethane may be stronger then cheap quality FRP, but Quality FRP like the type used on some of the JDM Aero mods will hold up to much more damage. Granted, you can't just abuse it on speed bumps or low garage entrances because then of course the paint starts to chip.
In the end, I'm here to help you guys with this post. All of you have an absolutely great car with the Infiniti G37. All I want is for you guys is to take such a great car and make it not only customized to your preference but better whether that be through performance or looks.

I'm glad you like the rear valence as it looks really good. I don't know how much it would be to modify it to fit the G37 Coupe as that particular one is for the G37 Sedan.

More then likely, it's a Nissan Japan Dealer option.
