I glued it on using construction adhesive, the same stuff used for holding roof spoilers to glass. I had some left over from attaching my roof wing.

another easy mod that you didnt add in was switching LEDS in your interior, trunk, and license plate.
Changing cabinet lights to white LEDS make the car so much sexier. and especially the license plate lights, changing it to white leds gives it a crisp sharp look compared to those yellow lights. our 335 came with stock led license plate lights but g35 didnt so i switched em out. and to satisfy the small portion of ricer in me, the inside trunk light, i put on a blue led. lol | |

i've did all the exterior lighting to my liking but still a little iffy about changing the interior. I've heard that while it looks nicer the light output is dimmer. I need to do some occasional reading and rolling inside the car does the bright white make it harder?

It's very bright... depends how many leds, and strength etc... you could use lots and have a super blinding bright blue, or white, or UV... Quote:
