Woah man, that post actually makes a good point, not just on saving money but also by keeping the stock bushings.

BTW, Just out of curiosity, how low can I go on stock camber arms?

The fronts aren't adjustable, but at least the toe is fully adjustable. With a 1.5" drop expect about a -2 degree camber in front. As far as the rear, if you use the SPC camber bolts they have a +/- 2 degree swing so if you drop it 2" and your camber is now -2.5 you can get it down to -.5 fully cranked, so they should suffice for a fairly deep drop. If you go fully slammed on coils you'll need the arms.

Alrighty peeps, got a quick update here; My G37's body work is finally done, fitted a JP front lip and sideskirts add-ons, I'm planning on taking it for a photoshoot soon, however I'm still waiting for all my suspension parts to arrive (KW Variant 1 CO's, SPC rear Camber/toe kit and front camber arms). Once installed, I'll grab my 7D instead of my phone cam and go wild

Also, I need to update my registration papers with the new color before I can take it for a proper spin, let me know what you guys think!

Bold choice, should look nice w/ the drop. I'd also paint the wheels black, think it would flow better than the silver w/ the orange & tint.

You got guts .... not my color choice. Pretty much only a Lambo can pull off orange.

Heh, tell me about it, I keep telling my wife that this my middle-life crisis at work here, lol.

I was aiming for painting the wheels black, I didn't go through with it knowing for a fact that not many here would get the wheel painting fiasco done right. The dark OZ Leggera-HLT wheels caught my attention though and I might opt for those to compliment the color once this year's bonus is in. I'm open to other alternatives though within their price range (around $400/each?).

@2008G-Man Lol, thanks I guess

Lambo's pull anything off, lol.

To tell you the truth, I needed such a bold color, a change of pace of sorts you know, been seeing the blues, blacks, whites and reds all over town, so heck, might as well set mine apart from the rest of the pack.

Real-life reactions has been positive so far toward the car, and since the rear emblems aren't installed back yet, people who didn't pay attention to the front infiniti logo kept pulling me over to ask me about the car's make and model, lol. It should look considerably more menacing once I drop it a bit I believe.

Thanks Monytx

As for wheels, I took a quick tour around the web hunting for better applications (than OZ's) and I guess I'm settling on a staggered 19" set from Vossen's (19x8.5 Front, 19x10 rear), either the CV3 or CV7 (leaning towards CV7 so far). As for the drop, still waiting for KW's to arrive. will update with more images once any changes are made.

BTW, any of you guys know of a safe way to remove paint splatter from the seats? The dudes over at the paint shop didn't cover the seats properly (really?!) and some pearl layer spray made its way onto the leather, they tried removing it but I stopped them since they clearly had no idea what they're doing

Any suggestion would really be appreciated guys.
