Cefiro Parts...who has em???

I am making this thread a sticky untill we get a good FAQ written.
Please post any info on cefiro parts avaiable for the I30/35. Keep general modification information in other appropriate threads. Posts with direct questions on these parts are allowed, just no posts like "wow, I got to get me some of that". I will be deleting previous posts that don't contribute to the topic. Hopefully we can get an accurate list of what is available for us.

Enjoy the new Forum!!

I have some of the cefiro parts. I have the headlights, gauge rings, Chrome polished kickplates, and have had 2 grills. The cefiro grills look cool and unique,but I always go back to the stock grill. I think it looks simple and clean, I just cant part with it.

Edit: I do not sell Cefiro parts, I got them from Sycefiro just like everyone else.

How do you think the back looks

I am thinking of putting a 98-99 taillight panel on the back of my car, then shaving it all. Here is a photochop done by me to I30MikeD's car. I changed his taillight panel, and shaved everything. I couldnt match some of his colors so you can tell where his emblems were. Just give me your opionions. I have a Tan 1997 I30 with no spoiler. If you have an actual pic where someone did this then please post it.

Cefiro one-piece headlights, chrome gauge rings and emblem.

Has any one gotten the front end splitter from SY? I had a few questions about it.

I have a set of splitters I bought from him. I haven't put them on my car yet. I was waiting to have my car repainted to put them on. I've also seen his pretty up close (I took the Pictures). It looks ok but they angle up almost like the front of a snow sled or snow ski. So I'm thinking that it would be better to use them for their fitment and angle and make my own out of fiber glass.

I like the 96-97 a lot more than the 98-99 because of 2 reasons

1. I like the lighter color of red on the deck lid
2. I like the the "infiniti" spelling on the top of the platic rather than on the lower half.

my question is can you shave the letters off the plastic? or are they molded on?

They can be shaved. They are just like the other emblems. The reason my "I" fell off is because I started to shave the I. I had barly loosed it then decided to leave it.

I don't he didn't have one on a car. He just showed me how it would look. Can you visualize what I'm saying though? The piece of chrome filled in piece of painted metal below the red plastic trim to the bumper and the whole length of the trunk lid. then in grey letters it said INFINTI, and another said CEFIRO. So you could have either.

I've had the car 2 weeks now, and already I want to get rid of my 96/97 tail lights and go to the much more attractive 98/99 design... anybody have part numbers and approximate cost for the conversion? Should it just bolt right on, lights and all, or are there wiring differences?

Thanks...

They bolt right in with existing bolts and wires. Im not sure of the part #'s but make sure you order one through a discount Infiniti dealership. My local dealership is a rip off and they dont know what im talking about 99% of the time.

But, I have a better Grille that might interest you..but this is BIGGER than your normal size infiniti I30 grilles and it'll cost more--> like $299(grille)+$40(wing emblem)+s/h... too much $$$

VIP Cefiro chrome grille with Mesh


It comes with a Nissan Wing Emblem. I am trying hard to source Infiniti Wing Emblem... well.. this is just for your reference to see what's available out there

I still have the Chrome piece that goes under the trunk.
Come on and pick up in NJ during the week of X-mas. I will only be there for 1 week. Otherwise, I am shipping them to CA (where I stay now). Email me:
sycefiro@yahoo.com

As you can see from the signature kit or even this kit:
People in Japan like to convert JDM to USDM (they don't have the I30 front and rear bumper for Japan.) just like we in the US like to convert to JDM. Therefore, that bumper is very much identical to the US bumper except it's a little lowered. There is no kit for that, and it's a full bumper replacement.

As far as the front kit, I am working on a kit that is ONE PIECE instead of the 2 piece splitter, or a THREE-PIECE kit instead of the 2 piece splitter. I will keep you updated as soon as I have them samples (*mid or late Januaray).

No, sorry. Only the rear trunk lip wing.

Btw, I have the signature rear trunk lip wing for both A32 & A33. Photos will be posted in the next few days.

Thank you

5. NEW Cefiro Mirror covers with Amber LED (similar to Mercedez Benz turning signal mirror covers) for A33 & A32:
Colors: you need to paint them to match your body color
Chrome Mirror covers also available: no painting required.


6. CEFIRO Grille for A32

7. CEFIRO VIP Sports Grille (with Mesh inserts) for A32


<Headlights & other lights>
8. All clear One piece Headlights (no ugly orange) non-HID A33
9. Smoke One piece Headlights with Angel eye (no ugly orange) non-hid A33

16. 1 piece front lip for A32
17. 2 piece front splitter for A32 & A33
18. 3 piece front lip kit for A32 (possibily A33)

grille

THATS THE GRILLE I WANT! SYCEFIRO if you can get us the hook up i'd be interested...299+s/h seems a little steep, if you can bring that down or know some connections, perfect. is there anyway to get the mesh blacked out? i have a black i30 and i've seen the mesh blacked out and it looks tight. i'm just curious about that center chrome "support", does that come off? i like the mouth look more. sorry for the questions, just excited to find a sweet mod that i can actually get my hands on from japan.

ps. sweet grille, although hard to see

eric

ps. sweet grille, although hard to see
In Japan (& most countries),they have discontinued A32 productions, so parts and accessories are hard to get:

The VIP Sports Grille w/o emblem is $299+s/h
The VIP Sports Grille w/ Nissan Wing Emblem is $335+s/h
I am trying to source the Infiniti Wing Emblems for ya'll.

Yeah, they also have the one with OPEN mouth look (no center vertical piece) But they have to be customized, you'd better pre-pay for this if you want it that way. If you want the mesh to be black, yes it's possible or you can just paint them yourself.

One more thing is that THIS VIP SPORTS GRILLE is BIGGER than your infiniti grille. And YES, they will fit on your I30 without any modifications.

If you want you can always make them yourself so it's cheaper (DIY is the cheapeset). Just take off your stock OEM infiniti grille and cut off all vertical grilles and put black mesh's on it. It'll look good too!

SY

PS. I also have one VIP OEM CEFIRO front grille all chrome(no mesh but vertical grille pieces with Nissan wing emblem) for $299 shipped. You can make it yourself so it's cheaper?!

I also have some other (JDM A33) grilles available that's not a perfect fit for A32 but will go on A32 I30's with some modes (but still NOT a perfect fit). See this photo below:


But, unfortunately, these JDM A33 grilles will not fit the A33 I30/I35's here in the US.. it can be made to fit but not a perfect fit.

I don't have the measurement of them with me.
you can refer to this photo for your reference:



I will take the measurement for ya.
I think it's kinda big to put on the fender where side markers go. But it's cool though. If I was to put it on the front, you can fit it on the hood, or in the rear center of the trunk where the trunk infiniti emblems go.

SY~
This is where the stock Cefiro put them: The C-pillar (the pillar between the rear passenger window and rear windshield)

Which rear spoiler are you talking about?
1. The bumper is actual bumper replacement (looks like they have the same bumper as US spec but molded some stuff on the two side to make it look lowered).
2. The rear spoilers for the trunk? Lip wing?
They are available now (I have one each on my hand, A32 and A33).
The A32 is pre-painted in Metallic silver color, but you can paint them to your body color.
The A33 is not painted.

You can take the A32 wing soon after I trial fit them on the other Maxima's. This will go on your trunk without any modification.

Like this:
Brian,
I can get them in chrome frame and aluminum color mesh, and you can paint them yourself (have a body shop paint them for you). This would be cheaper. (If I get them prepainted, it might be hard to match your body color, 'cause they have different color codes. And it might get chipped from shipping and stuff). Let me know so I can order them for ya

I was talking about the rear spoiler on the trunk. Would you be able to get the spoiler this summer, or is this a one time thing. Id really want to get it, but id prefer to wait till the summer when I get my higher paid job back.

They are similar to the Audi A6's trunk Chrome Trim.
So by looking at the photos that SLCI30T provided on the above link.... The chrome pieces will fill up the whole space right under the lower center trunk lid.

I will take some photos next week....
