Any way to see how the trunk looks with the emblem lowered a little bit to make it more centered? I want to debadge mine but not sure I like it being raised up after removing the lettering.

I never considered it but I'm kind of digging the black roof. What did that cost? Not sure how it would look on Smokey Quartz (gold/tan color).

What alignment settings are you running at drive height, or have you got to that point yet?
At any rate, kudos!

Whoops, kind of got off here for a bit due to work and starting up a new company! Thank you! And yeah it saved quite a bit to do it myself

I aligned it at drive height which is decently low, I'll try to snap a picture of drive height, I raise up on bad roads and before I get into my parking garage *eyeroll* haha

It sounds a lot more scary than it really is

installing the coilovers (air struts) is a majority of the battle, then just deciding where and how you want to run everything to A. not look ghetto B. stay out of the way so no issues down the road

Thank you to everyone else who has commented! I appreciate the words and am having a blast with it. Not sure on black wheels, looks good but never really been my thing on white - as someone who does motorsports photography I always despised taking photos of cars with black wheels in motion because depending on the light it just looks like there is nothing there as they move haha

All the smoke from the Washington fires hazed 100's of miles away over to my area covering the sun and such so figured I'd grab what's left of my camera gear (slowly rebuying after getting robbed of over 10k worth of equipment) and take the first real photos of my G.

I know I love mine! Picking her up this evening after getting the swift springs put on. That's about as low as I can afford to go for a couple months...years. I sorta blew my budget on wheels

Nice! Where can I see some pictures of it man? Nothing wrong with spending the budget on wheels

I went the cheaper route this time but I'll eventually get something else on here I'm sure
