some non-dslr pics


more later when i clean it up and get some pics of the car now that i lowered it some more. any questions about the setup feel free to ask.
Nice but why a pink front lip? Also I see you did the '97-'99 front conversion, but did you put a '97-'99 rear bumper? If not how did you get the rear valences to fit on the '95-'96 bumper?

thanks. i dont know why pink. maybe bc my friend said it would be cute (a girl fyi). lol. its vinyl so it'll come right off. i did it bc the guy that was supposed to paint the front end is a procrastinator and i needed it to look somewhat nice for the NWP meet. Originally Posted by ChrisMan287

yeah 97-99 front, stock 96 rear. the rear valences are for the 96 bumper

thanks man. the wheels were hard to get. my ef-gf bought them for her SC300 a while back and i recently nabbed them for a decent price..
the motor setup runs great, everything around it is breaking lol ( 3rd trans, 7th set of tires in the front, tie rods broke, i can go on haha)
I think it looks ridiculous. Either do all skirts in pink with another mathcin component to round out the color contrast, or keep it a single color. Looks silly as is.

Agreed. IMHO, you're just really taking away from an otherwise top-notch 4th gen, but to each their own...

i've seen several of their finished products and it's enough that i will be bringing them 2 fairly expensive sets of wheels to be refinished.
nice offests btw.

I really like this car and the setup.... even the PINK lip its like a statement I say leave It. I dont think anyone will copy that and that will set your car apart from the rest.
Haha thanks guys. yeah its G35 Ivory Pearl, its hard to tell in the pics.
yeah, so after this morning on my way out of Dunkin donuts i went down a incline wrong and the pink is no more lol. im going to get the front end painted finally.

Nice Works, Im not feeling the front lip at all though.
Also, why no filter on the s/c? You're just asking for trouble IMO.

I'd rather take a little loss in power than sand/road debris (especially in the winter in the Northeast) running through my engine, but to each their own.Originally Posted by emdot
