i do all my own work....i use to work at bpt....i'm very good friends with the owner, so i get to use all the tools and hoists whenever i want

and current mods:

2008 G37S Coupe 5spd

-GT Spec strut bar
-Rotora SS brake lines
-H&R 15mm spacers all around
-HKS filters
-COBB Accessport
-Hotchkis Sways
-Autokits-x front lip and rear valence
-Keyhole delete
-50% all around tinted windows
-Nismo rad and oil caps
-All interior white led's
-painted grill black

i think that's about it....still more to come, but no time to mod since i'm super busy with work and partying for the olympics! haha

Future:
-Lower it, still deciding springs or coils
-ironman/blackout headlights
-Samco radiator hoses
-COBB post MAF pipes
-Fujitsubo catback (depends if it's loud or not, i don't want loud)
-HFC
-Oil cooler
-DIY grounding kit (i'm gonna buy a big @$$ roll of 8 gauge...so if u guys want in, i can help you make a grounding kit for ur G and we'll split the costs) but let me do it on mine first so i can figure out how much wiring we need...
-GT Spec underbraces

once i have all these parts, my car is pretty much done for modding

so who wants to be appointed as the main person that'll set this up?

Hey,

Where did you get your grill painted? Did you purchase the splash guards from dealer?

I want to get my grill painted, but none of the shops were willing to do it and most said it would chip easily =( their quotes were rather high too so it made more sense buying the midnight grille
