so you still rub? i don't know whhy nissan left taht metal on there.

 

Looks great Michael! I will post up a few more pics shortly. I couldnt stop staring at the car. Like Michael said....pics don't do this car justice.

Just an FYI, we quickly removed the inner fender liner, which takes about 4 minutes to do. Then use a sharp knife and followed the same shape of the fender, but removed about 1 inch of material. Looks stock....if someone were to look at the inside of your fender.

 

Here is one more.

 

since you've played with the fender lining.. here's a thought..
when i lower my car, i was planning on just cutting off that lip portion (just where it curves) of the lining and then using double sided tape to hold the lining to the fender. do you think this would work? i haven't looked at it too much


and man that car is sexy. lol i want another one in red

 

Congrats on the New Volk wheels and nice of meeting you on Friday Michael!

 

Yes, that is exactly how we cut. Just follow the general shape of the fender liner. We focues on the meat center section, since that is the area with the potential to rub.

Remember, that rubbing is only an issue with the aggressive offsets, and the low drop. If you have a low drop, and more moderate offsets, no modifications will be needed, and you wont rub. :thumbup:

 

Cool.. I have the same springs coming in next week, and 20x10 +30 in the rear with a 275 tire.. i'm also putting stillen's camber kit / toe kits on in the rear though
whoops.. thread jack

 

Car looks hawt!, Make the VR really look sweet

 

My eyes aren't deceving me. Only one word comes to mind....."DAYUMMMM".

 

Thanks Sandy I enjoyed meeting you too, thanks Sharif, thanks for the compliments everyone. I got home and first thing I did was wash and wax the car and wax the lips. I just stand and stare! My wife was totally cool and loved the new rims. For all the G37 newbees like me, I just need to give Sharif and his crew total props. The trip to Forged Performance was well worth it and I don't think it would have worked out at a lesser show with this agressive a drop and offset. There were about 20 cars at the shop, mostly 350Zs, but also some g35s, EVOs and even a right side drive Skyline. I'll probably post a new thread with PICs so everyone can get a real flavor for that shop.

 

Yea stock rims i wasnt really feeling red on the stock rims... Changed my opinion with these pictures! looks amazing bro!!

 

car looks sick!!

 

question on the rubbing..
it only rubbed during suspension travel, right? There weren't any clearance issues with the car just sitting there was there?

Just wondering how bad the rubbing was

 

Those rims are hot I'm looking for something with black or gold with a chrome lip any chance they might have something like that at the place you got yours?

 

I'm guessing you mean before the grinding, b/c right now rubbing isn't really an issue..The answer to that is that no, it never touched anything just sitting there, only when driving/turning.
