Facelift for g37X coupe!

Hey whats goin on guys. So the new G has gotten a major facelift these past few weeks. These are not the best pics and the cars filthy right now (They're all I have right now, i was to busy drooling over it in person) but I'm super excited on how the car is turning out. I finally got my coils installed along with Vossen CV7s. The guys over at Project X installed the coilovers and camber kits, along with mounting the wheels. The wheels are absolutely gorgeous. The pictures don't do them justice at all. Id like to go lower, especially the rear a touch, but I just clear going up my driveway by a under a quarter inch so it will do for now. Reppin' the X coupe community! Thanks for checkin it out!

Very nice. Your license plate doesn't rub on your bumper being mounted like that?

Little update-
So I finally decided to pull the trigger on the duckbill trunk lid and I'm loving it. I ended up going with carbon fiber and I think it flows nicely with the car. Just had it installed to today by the Eli and Chris at project X and will be going back in a few weeks to have the rear view cam mounted on it.

That trunks bad @ss! I personally would paint it, and leave the lip in CF, but thats just me. Regardless, looks awesome. Any plans for a BBK??

Oh and hows the overall fitment on the trunk? Looks pretty good, only thing I see is it looks a little close to the driver side tail light by the reverse light.
