What are your impressions of the ART quality? Worth spending the money on?

Hurts a little at first considering the price, but the way that make your car sound will make your pants tight

If you look at the proportions you see the camera angle are off and not centered, the right side is lower then left side, its called an camera illusion.

But ye, its hand made, so it can be off 0.5-1mm for sure its fine for me, if you see 1" (inch) off i think you need glasses

Im happy with it and its perfect IRL o/

I think so, depending on the year would depend on what tranny, but some have been replaced by the time you get it. You never know if you got a jenner car.

I do have a stamp on the drivers side of the bell housing says cd0 #1 and the cd009 sticker is on the passengers side. I called both Nissan and infinti dealerships to get more info they both tell me that the g35 will have cd0 #1 no matter what and the sticker shows the revised transmission, but the only sure way is to drop the transmission. Car has had one owner before me that's verified so I'm assuming the g came with the 009 from the factory. It does have a late build date for an 05

What do you guys think?

Got my seats in. I had to have the brackets customized to get them lower as the pass side was hitting the headliner.

Replaced power steering fluid. I thought the fluid looked decent as it was coming out but then I saw that the fresh fluid was light pink... Not sure if I removed oem fluid but probably. Didn't notice much of a difference.. maybe a tad bit easier to turn the wheel but probably in my head.

Replaced passenger window motor. Big thanks to the guide I found here and whoever put it in pdf, the whole project was start to finish around 20 minutes. I'm pissed at myself now for putting it off for so long when it was really such an easy task. Here's a link to the guide I found. http://static.ibsrv.net/autocomm/Con...ep14update.pdf

Default OEM Reflectors and led turn signals

zLeds modification delete because of wiring issues, so back to OEM orange reflectors

and

new iJDM led turn signal pair of bulbs with no-error pair of resistors. Not a fan of hyper flashing blinkers.
