HeyItsAlex's Vortex Blue Sport Wagon

Hello Acurazine,

Been lurking for a while now but finally ready to show off my baby! I was driving a '10 G37 Sedan before the Wagon but was looking for fuel efficiency, cheaper insurance, and cheaper monthly payments. I also recently got a dog so the Wagon was a perfect fit!

This is a crappy iPhone pic but a better photoshoot to come tomorrow!

Mods so far:
- Yellow DTRL
- Yellow Vinyl over Fog Lights
- 15% tint all around
- TEIN Street Basis Coilovers
- VMR V705 (19x9.5 +45 square)

Future Mods:
- Lower the front 0.5" and raise the rear 0.25"
- 10mm spacers, roll rear fender, extended studs
- Alignment and camber kit for the rear

Let me know what you guys think! I'd be glad to answer any questions about my setup as well!

Lowered the front 0.5" and got it freshly washed and waxed. Shitty phone pics but photoshoot coming soon.

Stupid pup.

I really like it. Always figured that a nice clean 5-spoke rim would look great with these cars, even more so the wagon.

Where did you find these wheels in a 5x114.3 bolt pattern? I only see them in 5x120 and 5x112.

Oh man, that looks amazing! Having the concave face and spoke running to the lip is perfect. Beautiful, and great choice of color.

Gorgeous wagon

Where in LA are you ?

I was set on 18s for my wagon, after seeing puppetmasters, but your 19s look so good too! Can't decide

What size tires you running ?

Pm me if you don't mind me checking out the wagon in person
