Wrights G35x *new stuff*

Havent posted much since buying my car so I figured it was time to make a ride thread for the new car. Ive made a few minor modifications since I purchased and there will be a few more coming later on this year.

The next mod for sure will be BC coilovers to get rid of the monsterous ride height and front wheel gap :squint:

Then:
Mod the headlights
Paint the grille
OEM front lip
Rear diffurser
Exhaust (for sound :wub:)

Heres how It is a couple days after purchase, and these pics has already been posted on my Stratus page.






First thing done was window tint which made the car look tons better





Then added a 'lip' spoiler to the trunk. Hides the chrome strip on the top but Im still undecided on what I want to do with the rest of it.





Replaced all of the courtesy lights with white LED's along with the tag lights and front running lamps





The air filters that were in the car were just plain paper filters and I wanted something that was easy to maintain and possibly not have to replace for a very long time. I bought HKS dry flow filters.





Random crappy cell phone shot of the rear all lit up.





Then came the new rimzz' ;) Decided to put my Z wheels on the G since I never had the chance to do it with the Stratus




Time for a debadge for the most part





All done!



This brings me to this evening. I decided to give the car a good cleaning and waxing. Will be showing up for Z days this weekend so need the car fresh

















This last one is for giggles. Look at that gap! :lol:



Some of these shots are very similar but I was playing around with the camera and Photoshopping skillz. Wanted to post all to see how they turned out.

Let me know what you think :)

Any body roll?
Surprisingly I didn't feel any compared to my 3G's/Stratus and it's on OEM suspension. If there was it was minimal enough to where I didn't feel it. Then again I didn't push it to terribly hard. I'm sure with intense spirited driving there would be.


Thanks everyone!!
I can't wait to see it lowered. What kind of wheels are you going to use in the future? I really like DPE wheels. Either the S20 or something along those lines will look good. :dunno:

:lol: you think I shit money? Jk.

I don't really know honestly, all I do know it will be a concave style wheel. I've seen some really nice concave wheels I liked a lot. As far as spoke and color choice Im undecided.

Aftermarket wheels will be one of my very last mods. There is a bunch of small stuff I want done first to get the exterior and interior to my liking including repairs, this weekend it's going into the detailing shop for a paint restoration. Hopefully it turns out well and I'm satisfied. I really really really want to do the 2010+ front end conversion with the sport bumper and lip but first thing before anything like that will be coilovers, sway bars, end links, and probably Akebono brake swap from the coupe.

Oh and my exhaust will be modified before TOTD as well..hopefully it turns out nice. :ninja2:
Working on these as well. The 2007 models had a defect in the coating that was sprayed on them and the coating easily scratched off. It seemed it was rubber or something?

So pebbled blasted them, need to sand some and will drop them off at the body shop to be painted flat black. The chrome strip on the trunk is being color matched and chrome trim around the windows with be gloss black vinyl.

I know how you feel man, but if you have any questions on concave wheels or size and fitments, feel free to pm me :wavey: I can't wait to see this at the Dragon.

UPDATE!

Just got the car back from the body shop and I am stunned. Looks completely different! Here is a couple pics for now but will have to pull out the good camera for a "photoshoot" later on this week.

Nice, subtle improvements that totally change the cars look. I like it :)
Nice. I've always loved G35's, one of my favorite cars actually. I like the mods you've done, they're subtle yet classy, and add to the car a lot. Awesome ride!
Thank you all. There is more to come, just waiting for the money lol
Looks good, that lip will look better when it is lower to the ground! ;)

The low is coming soon to the G :D


Should be installed with all new brakes/rotors/fluids and a few other minor things within the next couple weeks.

Also starting on my headlights again.
