Wow, great custom work.

While I wouldn't drive that every day, I can very much appreciate the amount of work gone into the details. I have a lot of respect for the owner and those who worked on the car.

I like what was done, anybody can put nice wheels on a car n be done, but they went beyond that and did a great job, dnt c wat yall hatin on. The owner personalize hiz car juz like many people on here are trying to, mayb a lil to much camber but it goes with the whole VIP look which I believe he was going for. Well done imo

I'm sure the owner put a lot of money to make it look original and awesome, in his opinion.

In my opinion, he wasted a lot of money fking up a perfectly fine and beautiful stock M35 and turning it into an .

Not my style. Don't care at all for the appearance. But.............. I see steel. Not plastic. It took time to work the fenders.

And as such I respect it.

Definitely unique although nothing I'd do to my M45. Props to the owner for all the work though.

While I can appreciate the work that went into it I have to say that is probably one of the ugliest Infiniti M's I've seen in a while.

I can appreciate the "how can that car roll down the road?!?!" looks it must get...and I know that's the look the person is going for. But it's too extreme for me...I'm all about flushness etc...and maybe some fender rolling, but bodyworking to fit a 12" wheel on a car just to say you did...and then have to run -8 camber...

there has to be an equilibrium point between form/function IMO...

yea I am not feeling that m35 all that much. Wheels are ugly I think and I don't think that a-spec flows well with that bumper. Now the car looks like it's got a huge chin

Ummm, you = 10 posts here. Sarlacc = 31,000 posts here. I think he knows the lay of the land around here just fine. In fact, based on your rant, I think he knows the lay of the land around here MUCH better than you do.

I'm sure I left out a few sentence fragments and run ons.

Also, I'm glad I'm not the only one that thinks this looks like a waste of a perfectly good car. Props for skill and effort but not for the finished product.
