Honestly, I have no idea. I would have to make them and see how much time is invested before I assign a price to them. They definitely won't be near the price of the name brand cooling panels though.

Replaced from non sport bumper to sport bumper. Also lowered with Stance SS. Getting spacer soon. Not sure if I want to keep the Kent rear or OEM. Sometime I like it and sometime I don't. Depend on which angle I look at. LOL.

Would look so much cleaner with an OEM rear. IMO at least. I'm sure I'm not alone in that regard, but it IS your ride. Either way, clean *** ride. Love the sport bumper. I'm definitely on the lookout for one myself. Spacers will absolutely give it an awesome stance. Good job so far. Keep it up.


Also: Any plans to do something with the rims. I'm in the same position with them needing some attention and I know the hyper silver color is close to impossible to match. I was thinking to just do them in a Gunmetal metallic with rattle cans and if I like that have them powder coated.

For the rear, I am 50/50. Sometime I like it and sometime I think I want to go back to OEM. On the rims, I was going to get it professional paint it by the shop. They quote me $380, but I think I will leave it alone. For some reason, all 4 rims have lot of black spot on them. Save that $380 toward good quality rims. Thank you for the advise.

Did my first ever mod today! Installed wheel spacers f:r 20:25 and I'm really happy with how it looks now. And I also noticed less body roll around corners

Here are some pics

^^ Looks good man. Spacers did a lot for your car. I got bored and decided to see what my car would look like with different colored wheels. What you guys think?

I am about 20 seconds away from lighting my corbeau seats on fire. Corbeau says their bracket was made correctly. Instead of sending me a new one, because logic would say its damaged or off. They want me to measure my floor which the bracket should already fit. There is no difference in the floor up to 2007. So yeah...not too happy right now. See the video to see how much it's off.

Does it not bolt down or something? You point out that the holes line up, so I'm not sure what the problem is.

Yes the holes line up. But the thing isn't level, so it doesn't bolt down correctly. Hence the "wobble" in the video. Its like an inch off. So the seat is tilted to one side and sits about an inch higher than the drivers side.

Found out why the bracket doesn't fit. They based the brackets off the 350z. So I would assume some strange version of the G matches perfectly with the Z. But I went to turbo toys and tested the bracket on a 350 which fit perfect and two g35's. A 02 and an 04 both of which had the same issue as mine.

So Im sending the bracket back to corbeau and after taking multiple pictures and measurements, they are going to try and fab me one up that works.

Isn't there an alignment dowel on the rail? I don't remember if it's a stud on the floor, or part of the rail itself. Maybe that's not lining up for you. Just tossing out ideas.
