So with what I'm taking in here is what I plan.... I'm pulling the bumper off for the intake and headlights. So I will also pull the front grill and change it back to black. Also cf diffuser lip and mirror cover are on the to do list. Also lowering it is top priority. I think that makes it look the most off. Rims of course and stickers and emblems are coming off. Also will probably vinyl wrap the trim to black. Not sure about the mirrors black though.... I'll re evaluate after all that. I have a super busy weekend ahead of me lol.

Thanks for all the feedback guys

Those OEM calipers? I'm seeing slotted rotors there.

Might as well toss in an interior mod, too, while you've got some momentum: https://www.myg37.com/forums/interio...-for-08-g.html

I think the body of the mirrors in blue look nice, but the triangle door mount and arm in blue is a bit heavy. Nice to see how this is coming together and looks like you've got some good plans down the road.

Ok we are making progress. Something got into me and decided to take care of some stuff.... All the stickers are off, g37 emblem is off and decided to clean the inside a little too. Having a 4year old and a 11 month old takes a toll on back seats lol

Well... some stickers are cool. It's so-o-o subjective, after all.

the question is where the hell do you get CF Mirror covers for 2010+ sedan?? I mean autokits x website doesn't list them, do they actually sell those but they're not listed on the site?
