Last pics of my M45 Sport before winter...
Hey guys,
So I did a couple new mods to my M since the last time I posted pics/went to a meet. I plan on taking my wheels off tomorrow so I decided to take a couple of pics before the weather gets really, really crappy over here in NYC.
Enjoy the pics.
Mod List:
2006 Infiniti M45 Sport
-Crimson Roulette Pearl on graphite
-stock aero kit
-22x8.5 Zenetti Spartan colormatched/chrome lip(wrapped in 245/30/22 Hankook Ventus v4 tires)
-DVD/NAV hack
-15'' ceiling monitor in backseat
-2 DVD players
-3000k HID fogs
-blacked out headlights (took out amber strip)
-blacked/cleared out taillights (painted black, left clear portion of lights)
-white blinkers
As for the drop, I have had JDM springs in my garage for 5 months but I'm too scared to put them on given the fact I drive to Manhattan every single day. I feel like my teeth would start falling out everytime I hit a pothole. Anyway, at least there isn't as much wheel gap with this car as in a 2nd gen TL/CL. Believe me, I had one with rims and no drop, I know, lol.
Feel free to comment - whatever your thoughts may be. Thanks guys.

Jesal, they were black. I was getting bored. Funny though, every single person that has commented to me has said, ''these look a lot better than when they were black.''

Must have been everyone BUT ACURAZINE or people with any kind of taste.

Looks sick, wheels included! I like them better red than black. F the haters.. your car is very unique and still clean. The only thing i would suggest is try to get a clear coat over your tail light smoke.. it would look better if it was glossy

And I wouldn't say I got ''owned'', because the compliments I get in person are enough. Much like how everyone posts their car on here, I'm proud of it and I work very hard to keep it that way so I decided to post it up. Also, certain people actually said they liked my wheels - those are people that have minds to think outside the box and don't only say the same things over and over about wheels on this board:
As I present, the Acurazine (close-minded) wheel guidelines:
1) Make sure they aren't chrome - and if they are, make sure the car costs more than $125,000. You can't have a $60,000 car with chrome wheels on it - that's just ghetto!!!
2) Make sure you buy COOL racing, tuner wheels such as Enkei. And if you have an Acura, you need to buy Ronjons and that's it!! God help you if you buy anything else!!! (no disrespect to Ron - I've met him in person and he knows I respect him)
3) Gunmetal or black wheels look hot on anything. You could have a car that's 15 different colors and the hood is primer, but if you have a set of 18'' gunmetal wheels you're the man!
4) Make sure the wheel weighs less than 15 pounds so it could bend in 14 minutes after you hit a coin in the street.
5) The wheel must be less than 22 inches, even if you drive a monster truck or a Hummer. In fact, anything over 19's is ghetto!!! (then why would these wheel companies keep making bigger wheels, is what I ask)
AND, presenting the newest guideline:
6) Your car isn't your wardrobe. Why should you match a set of wheels to the car's exterior color, even if that appears to be the ''in'' way for wheels to be displayed given the popularity of the look at car shows and other events?
Alright, glad we got that over with.

Listen, as long as you love your ride and are proud of the work you've put into it, who cares what anyone else thinks. Just enjoy it. However, post pics online to the world, and you will get people who do and don't like it. Personally, it's not my style, but I don't see how that should bother you. It's just a matter of taste.

I do enjoy the car very much other then the wheels though. TV's arent my thing but in that car i guess its the way to go. My only question is, how does a 20 year old afford a M45?? Awesome car none the less
