Looks solid. I would recommend a rear spoiler, really gives the rear of our cars a nice look when combined with the diffuser. Also I was lowered on those same wheels, once you close the fender gap they really tuck into the wheel wells. Try some 15 or 25mm spacers.

The OEM spoiler looks perfect imo. Covers up the chrome and gives a nice lip, with no worries about fitment.

Also for the spacers i just measured how many mm it was from the top of the tire's sidewall to the fender, I found it to be around 25mm for me, but I was lowered almost 2 inches at the time and didn't have camber arms.

And how do you plan on integrating and wiring up the lights?

I was considering the oem as well just think it looks the cleanest

as of right now its been about 10 days on springs no camber arms yet
was thinking about changing the sway bar to hotchkis but read some say to just get oem g37(S) sway

I have a guy who will be doing my halos for my headlights so when I mentioned it to him about the diffuser and brake light he said he will take care of it so I'm yet to find out how that will be wired up.

Looks good, OP. Can you post up some additional pics of your powder-coated wheels - like a shot looking directly on? Thanks!

Looks just fine Khan, good replies as to what to do next, I'd consider debadging the back. Just leave the Infiniti Logo back there and paint that black (and that is one case where Plastidip is a good solution there), and doing the same for that chrome trunk lip would go well if you aren't sure about the rear spoiler or can't locate one in your color.

If you don't run in sub freezing temps & snow, then run summer tires. Continental Extreme Contact Sport or Michelin Pilot Super Sports, Bridgestone Pole Position SO-4s are the top dogs.

Kumho Ecsta PS91, Hankook Ventus V12 Evo, and BFG Sport Comp 2 are the next step down but still good performers.

BFG Sport Comp 2 A/S get good reviews, also the Continental DWS06 and Michelin Pilot A/S 3 for a bit more green.
