Did he have the steel brackets on hand or did you have to pickup some scrap steel somewhere?
He used whatever he had in his shop.

Here are more details in Alfredo's thread: https://www.myg37.com/forums/build-t...ml#post3856429

lol I didn't and it got super annoying having my headlights pointed into the ground.

so finally I gave in and when I got my oil changed at the dealership I told them to adjust my headlights for me they charged me 20 bucks

made a huge difference cause my lights were literally pointed straight into the ground lol couldn't even see the plates of the car 20 ft infront of me

Yeah I was wondering if dealers have a section in their service area that has the 25ft etc etc... I was just gonna adjust it myself.

Ideally marking the headlight cutoff at the end of your garage (or some other level place 20 ft away) prior to dropping is the best, then just adjust your lights after lowering back to those marks. That's what I did and was real simple.

If anyone knows of a 2010+ G37S 6MT MW/GB sedan for sale with decent mileage for the years, but most of all the paint must be in excellent condition, please let me know.

You gotta be kidding. Are you seriously looking for a third G Sedan?

There's one up at a dealership near my work - I cannot confirm the interior color but I know it's a manual. I'll check it out next week for you!
