Cleaning it up at the shop for pick up. Don't mind the exhaust the rear bumper was shortened up so the Stillen pipes were too long.

There are some great guys hanging out here. Thanks to Randy, Lawrence, Marty, Zack, Kurtis, John, and other G35drivers. Of course my fellow FX buddies helping me as well.

Already slapped a Greddy EVOTT on there. You can see one of the tips in the dumped picture. It's down at HIN in Chula Vista so more photos to come.

caskyline polished out the innercoolers while we had the front end off.

22x10 295/30-22 in the front 3.5" lip
22x12 335/25-33 in the rear 5" lip

Inners were powdercoated black, looks clean and is hella better to keep clean.

Adding photo of the rear lip. HRE doesn't make insane lips for the 22" wheels, I can live with the 5 though.

The sketching is sick. He's a FXer that has done a few sketches in the past. The FX community is smaller and less likely to get support from body kit companies so nothing ever came to market that worked or everyone agreed on. Mine is not to make money, just done for the love of modding.

Here are some of his other sketches.

Here's how much wider Auto Explosion made the body. Spacers used on some wheels while my HREs were getting rebuilt.

Hopefully I'm not in la la land that the new wide butt looks better than stock.
