Nice pics! I love your wheels!!

BTW I got the side markers yesterday. Can't wait to install them on my buddy's car this weekend.

I just saw you're in Columbus. Have you heard of Cousin Vinny's Pizza? My cousin owns the chain I have yet to visit him up there and try it though!

ya hopefully have it lowered some more soon. I am taking the car to michigan here soon though kind of worried about that trip. It'll be me, my four year old son, and my room mate who is 6'5" and 330 pounds and we are going from columbus ohio all the way to the northern peninsula I think the town is called escanaba. I know its in the sticks kind of because we are getting a cabin for a week or so and fishing.

just an update for everybody. long story short they had my road tore up and I f'd my suspension up completely and and traded for a stock type s plus some enkeis and considered getting rid of the car. well I love it too much. theres just something about a 3G tl with a six speed navi and brembos, you just dont see them too often. putting in my clutch masters clutch and lightweight fly soon so cant wait for that, got a good deal on a black friday sale 950 shipped. also timing belt, water pump, and plugs and wires as well as tranny fluid and oil change, getting her ready for spring. threw on a set of g35 rays wheels today, I like them. might sell them not sure, I got them for a great price. but anyways heres some current pics. not the prettiest but hey shes my baby

I'm usually not a fan of the Infiniti rims on TLs, but you are pulling them off nicely. Although the old wheels were still my favorite. If they weren't so aggressive, I would have seriously considered picking them up from you. I just wasn't looking to do that fender work to fit them properly.

Love dem Brembos.

thanks man. ya I really was surprised with how good these look. I really might stick with them and refinish them if I do. thinking of doing 245/35/19 front and 255/35/19 rear and lowering it to where it sits right above the tires.

I really like the design of the G35 wheels and they look good on the TL. Love the contrast of the silver rim against NBP as well. A drop will definitely make them look a lot better even if you aren't slammed. I dig it!

Ya I like the contrast too even tho If I keep them ill probably refinish to a slightly darker color. I love the fitment and specs. I don't plan on going slammed again probably a 2" drop this time around.

Car is looking good. I liked the previous front better but I'm biased. Also think about buying the rdx brake covers for the rear then you can paint them the same as the front and even out the look.

Nice progress

Yeah a 2" drop will look really good. Or if you go by a fender to ground measurement 24" front and 24.5" rear. I like the rake look so I always keep the rear a tad higher. That's juts me though.

sorry haven't updated too much lately. car has been sitting forever it seems like. putting in my clutchmasters stage 1 with lightweight flywheel this week hopefully, just got the timingbelt/waterpump done last week, and need to figure out where I have a small electrical draw coming from. I did however pick up a set of stern wheels really cheap on facebook. brand new st-1 for 450 bucks. gonna mount them on some 225-40 tires I have laying around this week and get them put on . probably rock them til next year when I should finally have enough saved for volks or something nice. specs are 18x8.5 and with small spacer will be around a +30 offset. Started painting my new brembos white to replace the yellow ones on there now. going with either a black or dark blue decal I believe. also picked up some burning blue extended open ended muteki lug nuts.

well ended up selling the sterns, got offered a good price and I wasnt crazy about the fitment without the use of bigger spacers which would need extended studs and all that. so.....ended up ordering a set of xxr 530 wheels specs are 18x8.75 all around +20 offset and tires are falken 225-40-18. im going to put a 5mm spacer on the rear sometime soon. also put the k sport coilovers on today, didn't adjust them much yet, went with a 2" drop all around to start out with and gonna let them settle a week or two and then adjust and go get aligned and all that good stuff. love the ride on them so far. I have them set in the middle, going to go a little stiffer tomorrow in the rear for sure and maybe a little stiff up front too. so heres how it sits as of now, going to get type s center caps probably and have oem visors in the basement might put those on tomorrow, and also have a roof spoiler from ebays bmwoem shop coming soon too. lots and lots to come still very soon.











went to the first car meet of the year pretty good turnout tonight. about 150 cars. we got a couple shots by ourselves at the end and will hopefully be able to get my hands on the professional ones (even though I know you guys love the iphone 5 pics)
