This is so true. I dropped mine while waiting for my spacers (springs came in the mail first and I was anxious) and that was the worst couple days of my life. Looked so bad. Like the wheels went even further into the wheel well.

Billet grills are not rice at all. Billet grills are more like grits. They go with dubs, donks and TVs. This car would be prime example of billet grill material. (Yes that is a TV in the door and Yes the seats are fully reclined)

imo i avoid spacer at all cost. a mild drop doesnt look that bad but spacer could get you killed

Yea he kinda stepped on his own toes there, but I let him make it. Im currently 50/50 bolt on/ slip on spacers myself. Besides more room for error in fastening, I dont seen any danger in Ichiba/HR spacers.

It has been common knowledge for awhile. The older and more affordable the G35 gets; the younger the owners are. The yonger the owners get; the more they think they know. Then the rules, become more like suggestions, and suggestions get ignored because they know better. Then everyone else becomes haterz.

in all honesty, *** it. let them dip their car and irrationally spend money on poverty mods. Not only do they look like fools, but it makes those (very few remaining) who save and insist on not ricing their cars, look better. nobody remembers your tinted tail and dipped roof nightmare.

i type this as i look out the window and see a disturbed kid trying to tuck in under glow wires into his frame that simultaneously connect to red and blue LEDs in his grille.
