Factory Lip Spoiler? G35coupe

I just ordered my G with the Lip Spoiler and I am thinking about lowering my car. Do you guys have any advice on how low I should go without having to worry about scrapping the lip spoiler on inclines. And, could anyone post pics of a G lowered with the lip spoiler. I would like to get an idea how it would look and how low to the ground the lip would be. I need to know ASAP while I still have a chance to cancel the lip spoiler.....Thanks

Re: Factory Lip Spoiler? G35coupe

The G's low to begin with. You'll find many people here on this forum who compalin at stock height. If you wanna lower your car, I assume you just wanna go with new springs vs a complete coil over kit, correct? If so, you really don't have a huge selection of springs and height options. For the most part, most kits out there will lower your G from 1" to 1.75" depending on brand and whatnot.

I personally have 1.75" Sprint Springs with a Stillen front lip and does it bottom out, well yes sometimes. If you go straight into a steep incline or decline, you will rub the bottom a bit. The Stillen lip itself (not so for the Veilside) as well as the OEM lip do not extend down below what I will call the lowest point of the front facia. It's pretty much level, but what happens is becouse of its extended profile, you'll get rubbing.

From what I have heard, this will also happen in stock height as well, but obvioulsy more when lowered. You just gotta be careful.

the stock height is low already i think, i hit the dip all the time, since you got the front lip, then i look low already. and get a 19" wheel you all set.
