As far as the comments (no dig here to you super aftermarket guys) about my car looking stock; that's the point. It's about that common G35 owner wondering 'why does that guys car look like mine..but better?'
I know my car looks fairly stock , but that secret touch is why it looks so clean. There's a lot of work that goes into making a clean look. For instance, my car is an 04, so the headlights and bumper are automatically not what it came with.
Tint is a HUGE improvement as well. The grill is new (chrome - not the common aftermarket black) so it doesn't look beat up. I've got a modest drop, with sport suspension upgrade and all spacers, bushings and camber kits to flush everything properly.
All in all, the point was to make it look like the car we all wanted from the factory, but simply wasn't offered due to laws, cost cuts, bad engineering and/or demographics.
OEM+ for the win. Haha

Thank you; you too. It's all about that subtle touch.

But back on topic. You're 100% right. OEM+ is that little bit of extra that turns heads and makes people say, "Damn, Why didn't the car come like that?" On a luxury car, subtle beats ostentatious any day of the week in my book. I rather have AMG then Mansory if that makes sense. Before the G, I had a 350Z I managed to wreck in spectacular fashion. My goals for that car appearance wise were much more aggressive than what I will do with the G in the future. The only appearance mod, besides tint, I'm going to do will be to add a HikkataDori trunk. I've got a thing for blended duck tails lol.

Thanks man. I can't take any credit for it unfortunately. I bought it like that. It's what attracted me to the car. Went to look at a 5 series and walked away with a G35. Go figure right lol.
