First Pic Post!

First time posting pics of my G, Ive had the car for about 3 months now. I was scared to post pics but its ok im ready for the flame...err i mean constructive criticism j/k Havent seen many pics of modded Caribbean blue Gs on these forums. Well let me know what you think so far, and what you think would look good for next mods? I know i need to lower it its the next mod im doing, what springs would give it the best look without being too too low? being a daily driver and high curbs, speed bumps and pot holes are everywhere over here. I was looking at probably getting the Tein 350Z H-Techs.

This is not a finished product, more of a feeler to see how its progressing and what i should being looking to do in the future. All ideas, comments and suggestions are open.

The gialla grill is also being repaired and repainted so not in the pic

Other than the veilside sideskirts the car looks great! Rims look different, but good! I just think the veilside skirts dont "flow" well with the car. Congrats on the car...hope you enjoy it!

I think your car looks GREAT!

The only things I would add are springs(like you said) and rear splash guards.

Well done!

What flame? Car looks good. Do what looks good to you. Different strokes for different folks. The black wheels looks good with the blue. Dark overlays on front and back would balance out with the black wheels.

Yea they just grew on me, i think they only look good on some colors of the Gs, but i like how they turned out. Thanks for the input though appreciated.

I like the car a lot but I think you need a new rear bumper or something like a lip for the rear bumper. It looks like its too high for the rest of the car because you have the side skirts and the front lip which make those parts of the car lower. but over all really well done

I completely agree. dont do the 350z h-techs. go with another spring with a lower drop.

Ahh, I see must look hotter with the gialla... did you think about getting overlays for the tails? I think it would fit well into the theme you have going. Hot ride!

^ yea i wanted to go with a Nismo CF Rear diffuser replica of course since they dont make a CF one and maybe just OEM rear splash guards. What do you guys think?

Im very happy i posted i love all this constructive criticism, makes me want to mod my car right now, all these good ideas and suggestions.

If not the 350Z H Techs springs, what is another good choice then?

Yea love the idea of overlays, i wanted to go with Bats GTR for the head and tail lights.

The car looks real good. You need splash guards asap. Or an aftermarket rear bumper would work too. You really don't need to lower it IMHO. Looking at your pictures, it seems there is not that much wheel gap.

I agree, the wheel gap isnt bad at all. If you want to do any drop at all the h-tech springs will be just right considering all the speed bumps that you mentioned.

GT-R headlight and tail light covers dont look quite right to me on the CB.

I think it would look a lot meaner from behind if you put the rear splash guards on and put a bat rear bumper overlay on, that combo is just sweet! Take a look

I also have CB and I am going to do that set up

btw, nice rims! I'd love to go with a set like that or maybe some gold ones.

i cant believe nobody else has noticed yet... but you need to get the mt.fuji emblem off the front and put a nissan on asap, i didnt know they made "infiniti nissan skyline's"

other than that, the car looks great, i'd get 350Z h-techs, good for daily drivers.
