Ar-Kan Custom Powdercoated Subframe. Bored of bolt ons>?

Just thought I'd share a few pics from Spo Com this past weekend. I'm in love with this car
Chris is a good friend and customer of ours here at Riverside Infiniti (if anyone is interested in any type of custom work, pm us and we can get you set in the right direction).

My good friend's G35 APR Widebody G35 coupe keeps changing. He finally got the entire underside of the car re-done, here are a few pics








Powdercoated black subframe, candy red arms and diff cover, light gold sways and adjusters, gold heat wrap, AP brakes and more
The rear rotors BTW were 100% custom made for this car alone. The center hats were one-off custom pieces that integrate small spacers into their design, so instead of having to use a slip over spacer, the hat is "thicker" so to speak to accomodate.

check out other pics in the interior section for his interior and trunk shots!

and the man himself hehe

Neat. I wished they took the bushings out or taped them. But I think I like your underside better.

Viet, your car's underside is sick too! The new Brembos match the setup perectly, leaving me droolin

Chris's rotors do have the veins, and although the pic doesn't really show it well, the veins themselves are even colored gold and red!
Chris' metalworker is sick, I think I'm going to hit him up for some various custom things on my ride soon too, since I'm nearly maxed out with things to do hahaha...

That looks really great, but when you do something like that to a car it really makes it useless as an everyday car. Now it's just for show unless you want to spend hours cleaning it all the time.

Tony - mannn, didnt know u posted this? still have some clean-up work underneath, just ran out time for this show. FYI - for everyone, I'm my worst critic, sub-frame is black w/gold flakes, looked sweet in the sun, but the damm thing doesnt see sun, so i'm second guessing myself, i think it should have been done in a gold to have more of a visual statement - oh well.

Viet - love your BBK, checking it out at the show

You know, I thought so too, but after having gone through a polished subrframe setup, to this, It's night and day different. The polished parts were very touchy and a PITA to clean.

the powdercoated setups actually are a cinch to clean, I've only had to run a rag over them to wipe everything off, even after driving my car a few times a week.. It's easier to clean than with the standard metal the OE stuff is....

Chris, yea, you're your own worst critic, but that's why your car is uber baller!

you know I love it! haha, we're always feeding off of each other for our upgrades!
