35% tint on the windshield. cops don't bother me b/c I drive slow and half the crew are on the force one way or another. and I have a doctors note for it since my astigmatism is bad |

Congrats Kenny. The M is indeed pimp. I'd like to have to retractable seatbelts from the M in the vert though.

I'd like it if you could get the all black interior like they have in Europe. You can get a black headliner and black laquer wood trim.

ordered these Eibach springs from RAVSPEC and came in ..... Petrolwerks stayed late after work just so I can get the install done at 10pm on my one night off. http://a4.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphot..._6452786_n.jpg http://a1.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphot..._4167481_n.jpg http://a4.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphot...5_856795_n.jpg |

installed 15mm spacers in the rear... eibach pro kit lowering springs are starting to settle in more. I got an offer to test the BC coilovers but really don't want to lose the handling. I would go VIP but it defeats the purpose of me keeping this as a family car. |

I also added Ichiba v2 15mm spacers in the rear so the wheel sits more flush with the fender in the rear. Attachment 172053 The eibachs are starting to settle a little more.... more toys coming this week! |
Don't go VIP keep it as a family car, Might wanna update the fogs though.

install was pretty easy... just took longer to take apart the rear seats, you can't go through the trunk. alignment shouldn't have any problems at all.... Eibach unfortunately is your only choice at the moment which doesn't drop much as you can see from the picture. |
am thinking of just doing the fronts! rear looks good. what do you think?

the Eibach springs actually have about 2 more coils versus the OEM M37 Sport springs.... so you have to make sure you install the frnot and rears |

Attachment 172055 |
so the stillen intakes DO NOT FIT from the G into the M..... the extra 3" of width clearly shows when you try to line up the outer bolts of the intakes..... it was worth a shot though and failed.
good note: the eibachs are slowly settling more... http://a5.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphot..._7602975_n.jpg |

Here's a preview of what mine will look like next summer, just change the color of the car to LP and the rims will be hyper silver instead of the gunmetal.
Attachment 88856 |
Ok, so i was curious of what some old Axis Mod rims would look like on the 37x, bc if they looked could I would have gotten them refurbish for next summer, but didn't like the way they looked and these are 20's. AND NO I DONT WANT TO DROP IT.

I just spent a couple days in a loaner M37S from the dealer and loved it...a lot. I find the lines of the car exceptionally attractive with one exception -- it was as high as an SUV. It was really thirsty too.
Your car looks magnificent with a drop. I prefer the milder Eibach drop: http://a5.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphot..._7602975_n.jpg ...over the coilover drop: https://fbcdn-sphotos-a.akamaihd.net...59701610_n.jpg Either way, a sweet ride and very tasteful. I do think I'd miss the 6MT though. |

wow your M looks so awesome! especially now that its dropped/stanced!
|
I love my 2010 G37x. It was a big upgrade from the 2002 Elantra. When it comes time to upgrade I'm going to move to the M.
|
|
your M looks amazing!!! I'm sold.
Never thought the M would look this good. |
Wow! I saw some pics of your M on FB and it took me a while to figure out what I was looking at..... Very nicely done! I can't think of a sedan that I think looks better than what you are currently rolling
