Looks beautiful!! Thanx for the inside pics. Seems to be a great install job. It makes me wonder why Nissan did not offer this as an option for a little more$. You will have to keep us updated on how this is over time.

Great looking sunroof. That's an option I've wanted from the beginning. I'm going to start looking around my area for someone who can put one in for a similiar price!

Thanks for the props. If you get the sunroof, don't stick around and watch them cut the hole, it will make those butt cheeks tighten up.

Tim,

If you ever get any creaking noise from the sunroof buy some powdered graphite and use it on the seal. This seal is rather stiff. It keeps water out fine but tends to make very small "skips" across the glass when the frame flexes during driving. use graphite on the seal a few times and no more noise.

btw damn nice car Love the new lip!

Oh, I was wondering what he was talking about, but then again I would have never guessed your's was a Celica wing.

Thanks

Looks Great! Is the G35 wing a direct fit of will it take some modification? Also, is that lip the one from Intense?

The G35 wing is a pretty good fit, I did not have to do any mods other than drilling 2 extra holes. Yes it is the lip from Intense Power and I was impressed for the cost of the spoiler. Thanks for the compliment.

Depends on where you buy it from, Infiniti was trying to get $500 for it but Richie's Auto Restyling here in Little Rock got me mine from Replica Wing for $250 and it included the 3rd tail light kit. Whether you buy it from Infiniti or Replica wing you will have to have it painted. If you can't find it local call Todd Richie at 501-835-5531 or 501-580-0021 he can get you one and ship it.


Thanks guys for the compliments, they are truly appreciated.

Tim
